A Parametric Study of Trailing Edge Flap Implementation on Three Different Airfoils Through an Artificial Neuronal Network
(MDPI, 2020-05-18)
Trailing edge flaps (TEFs) are high-lift devices that generate changes in the lift and drag coefficients of an airfoil. A large number of 2D simulations are performed in this study, in order to measure these changes in ...
A Methodological Approach for Integrating Physical Assets in Industry 4.0
(IEEE, 2022-12-20)
The paradigm of the fourth industrial revolution poses the combined use of technologies that provide companies with adaptability to face uncertain market scenarios. Different institutions have presented their reference ...
Extreme learning machine ensemble model for time series forecasting boosted by PSO: Application to an electric consumption problem
(Elsevier, 2021-09-10)
Ensemble Model is a tool that has attracted attention due to its capability to improve the outcome performance of emerging techniques to solve the modelling and classifying problem. However, the feasibility of applying ...
Automatic Identification Algorithm of Equivalent Electrochemical Circuit Based on Electroscopic Impedance Data for a Lead Acid Battery
(MDPI, 2021-06-06)
Obtaining tools to analyze and predict the performance of batteries is a non-trivial challenge because it involves non-destructive evaluation procedures. At the research level, the development of sensors to allow cell-level ...

The protection provided by wearing masks has been a guideline worldwide to prevent the risk of COVID-19 infection. The current work presents an investigation that analyzes the effectiveness of face shields as personal ...
A Hybrid Control Approach for the Swing Free Transportation of a Double Pendulum with a Quadrotor
(MDPI, 2021-06-13)
In this article, a control strategy approach is proposed for a system consisting of a quadrotor transporting a double pendulum. In our case, we attempt to achieve a swing free transportation of the pendulum, while the ...
Design and Implementation of a Maximum Power Point Tracking System for a Piezoelectric Wind Energy Harvester Generating High Harmonicity
(MDPI, 2021-07-09)
In this work, a maximum power point tracking (MPPT) system for its application to a new piezoelectric wind energy harvester (PWEH) has been designed and implemented. The motivation for such MPPT unit comes from the power ...
Temperature based maximum power point tracking for photovoltaic modules
(Nature, 2020-07-27)
In this article authors propose a temperature based Maximum Power Point Tracking algorithm (MPPT). Authors show that there is an optimal current vs maximum power curve that depends on photovoltaic (PV) module temperature. ...
A Battery Management System with EIS Monitoring of Life Expectancy for Lead–Acid Batteries
(MDPI, 2021-05-21)
Abstract
This work presents a battery management system for lead–acid batteries that integrates a battery-block (12 V) sensor that allows the online monitoring of a cell’s temperature, voltage, and impedance spectra. The ...
Jupiter's third largest and longest-lived oval: Color changes and dynamics
(Elsevier, 2021-06)
The transition region between the North Equatorial Band (NEBn) and North Tropical Zone (NTrZ) in Jupiter is home to convective storms, systems of cyclones and anticyclones and atmospheric waves. Zonal winds are weak but ...
