CAM-Rob postprocessor based on a fuzzified redundancy resolution scheme
(Springer-Verlag, 2012)
This work highlights the applicability of different redundancy resolution schemes to the postprocessing stage from a computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) system to an industrial redundant workcell. The inverse kinematic ...
Automated modelling of complex refrigeration cycles through topological structure analysis
(Elsevier, 2009)
We have developed a computational method for analysis of refrigeration cycles. The method is well suited for automated analysis of complex refrigeration systems. The refrigerator is specified through a description of flows ...
Comparison of environmental impacts of building structures with in situ cast floors and with precast concrete floors
(Elsevier, 2009)
In this paper, the environmental impacts of two types of slab systems are studied. The first type, a concrete-based one-way spanning slab, is the most common solution in residential buildings in Spain. The second type, a ...
Computer-aided sketching as a tool to promote innovation in the new product development process
(Elsevier, 2009)
Sketching is an established part of engineering culture. Sketches assist product designers during the creative stages of design and help them to develop inventions. Paper-and-pencil sketching is highly useful but lacks ...
Computerized design of advanced straight and skew bevel gears produced by precision forging
(Elsevier, 2011-07-01)
The computerized design of advanced straight and skew bevel gears produced by precision forging is proposed. Modifications of the tooth surfaces of one of the members of the gear set are proposed in order to localize the ...
Ultimate capacity od rectangular concrete-filled steel tubular columns under unequal load eccentricities
(Elsevier, 2012-01)
The paper describes 36 experimental tests conducted on rectangular and square tubular columns filled with normal and high strength concrete and subjected to a non-constant bending moment distribution with respect to the ...
Detección de defectos en carrocerías de vehículos basado en visión artificial: diseño e implantación
(Elservier, 2012-01)
This paper describes the design and implementation of a novel inspection system for detecting defects on car bodies based on artificial vision, implemented in Ford Factory at Almussafes (Spain). The system is based on the ...
Implementation of Hertz theory and validation of a finite element model for stress analysis of gear drives with localized bearing contact
(Elsevier, 2011)
An analytical approach for stress analysis of gear drives with localized bearing contact based on the Hertz theory is proposed. The proposed approach provides a complete and effective solution of the contact problem but ...
Ranking fuzzy cognitive map based scenarios with TOPSIS
(Elsevier, 2012-02)
Scenarios describe events and situations that would occurred in the future real-world. Policy makers use scenario methods as a tool to build landscapes of possible futures at a national level. Based on these future visions, ...
Development and validation of a finite element model for water – CO2 coaxial gas-coolers
(Elsevier, 2012-05)
The gas-cooler heat exchanger is a characteristic device of the refrigeration plants that use CO2 as the
working fluid in transcritical conditions. The proper gas-cooler sizing, allows getting the maximum effectiveness
in ...
