A Triangulation Approach to Asymptotically Exact Conditions for Fuzzy Summations
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) (2009)Many Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy control-synthesis problems in the literature are expressed as the problem of finding decision variables in a double convex sum (fuzzy summation) of positive definite matrices. Matricespsila ... -
Accelerated Discovery of Thermoelectric Materials: Combinatorial Facility and High-Throughput Measurement of Thermoelectric Power Factor
American Chemical Society (2016-05)A series of processes have been developed to facilitate the rapid discovery of new promising thermoelectric alloys. A novel combinatorial facility where elements are wire-fed and laser-melted was designed and constructed. ... -
Accuracy of a single position estimate for kNN-based fingerprinting indoor positioning applying error propagation theory
IEEE (2023-06-23)Indoor Positioning Systems usually consider the average positioning error over a set of evaluation samples, or a quartile of that value, as the global error. However, they do not provide a metric for the uncertainty for ... -
Acquisition of transversal skills through PBL: a study of the perceptions of the students and teachers in materials science courses in engineering
Universitat Politècnica de València (2015)The main goal of this work is describing the experience in using Project Based Learning (PBL) methodology in Materials Science courses in several Engineering degrees. The courses were taught simultaneously in four different ... -
Activity modelling in a collaborative ceramic tile design chain: an enhanced IDEF0 approach
