El estudio de la propagación de una perturbación en un medio elástico es un contenido de relevancia en una carrera técnica. En los laboratorios docentes no es fácil llevar a cabo experimentos en los que el alumnado visualice fácilmente la dinámica de vibraciones. Además, la ejecución de prácticas demostrativas de análisis modal exige la utilización de configuraciones en las que son necesarios dispositivos excitadores como los Shaker o los martillos de impacto. En este trabajo se presenta una metodología experimental basada en la utilización de señales pseudoaleatorias tipo MLS (Maximum Length Sequence) y actuadores de tipo electrodinámico, de fácil acceso al profesorado, en aplicaciones para el estudio de la dinámica de vibraciones y que ha sido ensayada con éxito en diferentes titulaciones. La base experimental sobre la que se proponen las aplicaciones consiste en barras y estructuras tipo “L” construidas a partir de piedra arenisca tipo Bateig.

Dins de la tasca de coordinació del primer curs del grau de telecomunicacions s'ha observat un grau molt elevat d'abandonament de la titulació. Aquest fet condiciona la tasca i metodologia docent. Amb la intenció d'incrementar la qualitat del nou grau i augmentar les taxes de eficàcia, hem buscat els motius que originen aquest alt grau d’abandonament dins la titulació i hem ideat possibles solucions que posen remei o pal·lien en certa mesura aquest problema. Per això es presenten estratègies i mecanismes per augmentar la qualitat de la docència, es comparen els resultats dels darrers cursos i s’analitzen els resultats de les estratègies posades en marxa. La tasca ha estat desenvolupada pels coordinadors de cada assignatura que conjuntament han analitzat com es va produir l'abandó durant l'avaluació continuada.

En este artículo se describe la metodología empleada para el desarrollo y coordinación de las asignaturas obligatorias del Máster Universitario en Automática y Robótica de la Universidad de Alicante. Se ha trabajado en adecuar las guías docentes a la metodología mediante el trabajo colaborativo de los distintos profesores coordinadores de las asignaturas con el objetivo de garantizar que todos los conceptos necesarios sean cubiertos y complementados entre las asignaturas, apoyándose en mapas conceptuales. Otro aspecto en el que se ha hecho un especial énfasis en la metodología propuesta ha sido introducir como parte de las actividades teóricas y/o prácticas el uso de laboratorios virtuales remotos. Los laboratorios virtuales sirven de apoyo a la teoría para mostrar simulaciones y resultados prácticos mediante la interacción con equipamiento real. Además, muchas de estas herramientas admiten que el alumnado pueda trabajar a distancia desde sus casas, lo que redunda en la posibilidad de autoaprendizaje e incluso la realización de prácticas a distancia.

La titulación de postgrado Máster en Prevención de Riesgos Laborales se implantó en la Escuela Politécnica Superior de la Universidad de Alicante en el curso 2011/12. El profesorado con docencia asignada en la titulación participó durante el curso 2012/13 en el proyecto para la coordinación de las asignaturas del Máster en Prevención de Riesgos Laborales. En el marco creado por los nuevos estudios de Postgrado, dentro del EEES, el proyecto tenía como objetivo principal la coordinación de las asignaturas y la mejora de la calidad docente. La implantación de la titulación generó un esfuerzo considerable por parte de los coordinadores y docentes implicados, que adaptaron su planificación y metodología al nuevo marco del EEES. El diseño de las asignaturas del Máster ha incorporado la metodología, el cronograma del temario y la evaluación durante todas las semanas del semestre. En este sentido se tuvieron que solucionar diferentes problemas: compatibilizar horarios de los docentes, evitar solapamientos entre asignaturas y verificar la información completa de cada asignatura. El proyecto de coordinación ha resultado un instrumento útil para la interacción y coordinación entre los profesores/as con participación docente en el Máster.

High resolution X-ray spectroscopy is a powerful tool for studying the nature of the matter surrounding the neutron star in X-ray binaries and its interaction between the stellar wind and the compact object. In particular, absorption features in their spectra could reveal the presence of atmospheres of the neutron star or their magnetic field strength. Here we present an investigation of the absorption feature at 2.1 keV in the X-ray spectrum of the high mass X-ray binary 4U 1538–52 based on our previous analysis of the XMM-Newton data. We study various possible origins and discuss the different physical scenarios in order to explain this feature. A likely interpretation is that the feature is associated with atomic transitions in an O/Ne neutron star atmosphere or of hydrogen and helium like Fe or Si ions formed in the stellar wind of the donor.

Context. The early-type binary MY Cam belongs to the young open cluster Alicante 1, embedded in Cam OB3. Aims. MY Cam consists of two early-O type main-sequence stars and shows a photometric modulation suggesting an orbital period slightly above one day. We intend to confirm this orbital period and derive orbital and stellar parameters. Methods. Timing analysis of a very exhaustive (4607 points) light curve indicates a period of 1.1754514 ± 0.0000015 d. High-resolution spectra and the cross-correlation technique implemented in the todcor program were used to derive radial velocities and obtain the corresponding radial velocity curves for MY Cam. Modelling with the stellar atmosphere code fastwind was used to obtain stellar parameters and create templates for cross-correlation. Stellar and orbital parameters were derived using the Wilson-Devinney code, such that a complete solution to the binary system could be described. Results. The determined masses of the primary and secondary stars in MY Cam are 37.7 ± 1.6 and 31.6 ± 1.4M⊙, respectively. The corresponding temperatures, derived from the model atmosphere fit, are 42 000 and 39 000 K, with the more massive component being hotter. Both stars are overfilling their Roche lobes, sharing a common envelope. Conclusions. MY Cam contains the most massive dwarf O-type stars found so far in an eclipsing binary. Both components are still on the main sequence, and probably not far from the zero-age main sequence. The system is a likely merger progenitor, owing to its very short period.

Context. VISTA Variables in the Vía Láctea (VVV) is one of six ESO Public Surveys using the 4 meter Visible and Infrared Survey Telescope for Astronomy (VISTA). The VVV survey covers the Milky Way bulge and an adjacent section of the disk, and one of the principal objectives is to search for new star clusters within previously unreachable obscured parts of the Galaxy. Aims. The primary motivation behind this work is to discover and analyze obscured star clusters in the direction of the inner Galactic disk and bulge. Methods. Regions of the inner disk and bulge covered by the VVV survey were visually inspected using composite JHKS color images to select new cluster candidates on the basis of apparent overdensities. DR1, DR2, CASU, and point spread function photometry of 10 × 10 arcmin fields centered on each candidate cluster were used to construct color–magnitude and color–color diagrams. Follow-up spectroscopy of the brightest members of several cluster candidates was obtained in order to clarify their nature. Results. We report the discovery of 58 new infrared cluster candidates. Fundamental parameters such as age, distance, and metallicity were determined for 20 of the most populous clusters.

We provide a complete characterization of the astrophysical properties of the σ Ori Aa, Ab, B hierarchical triple system and an improved set of orbital parameters for the highly eccentric σ Ori Aa, Ab spectroscopic binary. We compiled a spectroscopic data set comprising 90 high-resolution spectra covering a total time span of 1963 days. We applied the Lehman-Filhés method for a detailed orbital analysis of the radial velocity curves and performed a combined quantitative spectroscopic analysis of the σ Ori Aa, Ab, B system by means of the stellar atmosphere code FASTWIND. We used our own plus other available information on photometry and distance to the system for measuring the radii, luminosities, and spectroscopic masses of the three components. We also inferred evolutionary masses and stellar ages using the Bayesian code BONNSAI. The orbital analysis of the new radial velocity curves led to a very accurate orbital solution of the σ Ori Aa, Ab pair. We provided indirect arguments indicating that σ Ori B is a fast-rotating early B dwarf. The FASTWIND+BONNSAI analysis showed that the Aa, Ab pair contains the hottest and most massive components of the triple system while σ Ori B is a bit cooler and less massive. The derived stellar ages of the inner pair are intriguingly younger than the one widely accepted for the σ Orionis cluster, at 3 ± 1 Ma. The outcome of this study will be of key importance for a precise determination of the distance to the σ Orionis cluster, the interpretation of the strong X-ray emission detected for σ Ori Aa, Ab, B, and the investigation of the formation and evolution of multiple massive stellar systems and substellar objects.

A MATLAB-based computer code has been developed for the simultaneous wavelet analysis and filtering of several environmental time series, particularly focused on the analyses of cave monitoring data. The continuous wavelet transform, the discrete wavelet transform and the discrete wavelet packet transform have been implemented to provide a fast and precise time–period examination of the time series at different period bands. Moreover, statistic methods to examine the relation between two signals have been included. Finally, the entropy of curves and splines based methods have also been developed for segmenting and modeling the analyzed time series. All these methods together provide a user-friendly and fast program for the environmental signal analysis, with useful, practical and understandable results.

We carry out a seismic noise study based on array measurements at three sites in the Málaga basin, South Spain, for the further estimation of shear wave velocity profiles. For this purpose, we use both the H/V method and the f–k technique in order to characterize the different materials present in the zone, i.e., Quaternary sediments and Pliocene sedimentary rocks above the bedrock. The H/V analysis shows frequency peaks going from 1 Hz, in areas close to the border of the basin, to 0.3 Hz in places located toward the center of the formation. The f–k analysis allows obtaining the dispersion curves associated with each site and subsequently, estimating the Vs profiles by inversion of the respective group velocities. In this way, the basin basement can be characterized by S-wave velocities greater than 2000 m/s. Regarding the basin fill, it is divided into three layers defined by different wave velocity intervals. The shallowest one is featured by velocities ranging from 150 to 400 m/s and comprises the Quaternary sediments, while velocities going from 550–700 to1200–1600 m/s characterize the two underlying layers composed by Pliocene sediments. Finally, the information provided by the three Vs profiles is integrated in a 2D cross-section of the basin to have a spatial view of its sedimentary structure. The results obtained here, in addition to providing useful information about the infill of the basin near the metropolitan area of Málaga, will be very helpful for future seismic zonation studies in the region.

This paper presents a new framework based on optimal control to define new dynamic visual controllers to carry out the guidance of any serial link structure. The proposed general method employs optimal control to obtain the desired behaviour in the joint space based on an indicated cost function which determines how the control effort is distributed over the joints. The proposed approach allows the development of new direct visual controllers for any mechanical joint system with redundancy. Finally, authors show experimental results and verifications on a real robotic system for some derived controllers obtained from the control framework.

Designing educational resources allow students to modify their learning process. In particular, on-line and downloadable educational resources have been successfully used in engineering education the last years [1]. Usually, these resources are free and accessible from web. In addition, they are designed and developed by lecturers and used by their students. But, they are rarely developed by students in order to be used by other students. In this work-in-progress, lecturers and students are working together to implement educational resources, which can be used by students to improve the learning process of computer networks subject in engineering studies. In particular, network topologies to model LAN (Local Area Network) and MAN (Metropolitan Area Network) are virtualized in order to simulate the behavior of the links and nodes when they are interconnected with different physical and logical design.

This paper describes a study and analysis of surface normal-base descriptors for 3D object recognition. Specifically, we evaluate the behaviour of descriptors in the recognition process using virtual models of objects created from CAD software. Later, we test them in real scenes using synthetic objects created with a 3D printer from the virtual models. In both cases, the same virtual models are used on the matching process to find similarity. The difference between both experiments is in the type of views used in the tests. Our analysis evaluates three subjects: the effectiveness of 3D descriptors depending on the viewpoint of camera, the geometry complexity of the model and the runtime used to do the recognition process and the success rate to recognize a view of object among the models saved in the database.
