On the Analysis of Speech and Disfluencies for Automatic Detection of Mild Cognitive Impairment
(Springer, 2020-10)
Alzheimer's disease is characterized by a progressive and irreversible cognitive deterioration. In a previous stage, the so-called Mild Cognitive Impairment or cognitive loss appears. Nevertheless, this previous stage does ...
Optimization of the 2PRU-1PRS Parallel Manipulator Based on Workspace and Power Consumption Criteria
(MDPI, 2021-08-24)
In the last few years, parallel manipulators are being increasingly studied and used for different applications. The performance of parallel manipulators is very sensitive to the geometric parameters, so it is essential ...
A Reconfigurable Framework for Vehicle Localization in Urban Areas
(MDPI, 2022-03-28)
Accurate localization for autonomous vehicle operations is essential in dense urban areas. In order to ensure safety, positioning algorithms should implement fault detection and fallback strategies. While many strategies ...
A Simplified Modeling Approach of Floating Offshore Wind Turbines for Dynamic Simulations
(MDPI, 2022-03-18)
Currently, floating offshore wind is experiencing rapid development towards a commercial scale. However, the research to design new control strategies requires numerical models of low computational cost accounting for the ...
Robotic-Arm-Based Force Control in Neurosurgical Practice
(MDPI, 2023-02-06)
This research proposes an optimal robotic arm speed shape in neurological surgery to minimise a cost functional that uses an adaptive scheme to determine the brain tissue force. Until now, there have been no studies or ...
Effective Position Control for a Three-Phase Motor
(MDPI, 2020-02-01)
This document presents an efficient proportional derivative (PD) position controller for three-phase motor drives. The regulator has been designed in frequency domain, employing the direct–quadrature (<i>d</i>&ndas ...
Active flow control on airfoils by reinforcement learning
(Elsevier, 2023-11-05)
Active flow control is a widespread practice for airfoil aerodynamic performance enhancement. Within active flow control, reactive strategies are very effective, but the adequate design of these strategies is often complex. ...
A novel python-based floating offshore wind turbine simulation framework
(Elsevier, 2024-02)
The expansion of floating offshore wind brings the industry closer to achieving commercial viability. However, the challenging environment characterised by strong winds, waves, and currents, along with the growing size of ...
Above-ground biomass estimation from LiDAR data using random forest algorithms
(Elsevier, 2022-02)
Random forest (RF) models were developed to estimate the biomass for the Pinus radiata species in a region of the Basque Autonomous Community where this species has high cover, using the National Forest Inventory, allometric ...
Delamination Fracture Behavior of Unidirectional Carbon Reinforced Composites Applied to Wind Turbine Blades
(MDPI, 2021-01-27)
One of the materials that is used widely for wind turbine blade manufacturing are fiber-reinforced composites. Although glass fiber reinforcement is the most used in wind turbine blades, the use of carbon fiber allows ...
