Pabellón Eco 2014

Bajo el concepto de "Cuando el muro dejó de ser sólo un muro", se propone la construcción de un muro que se va transformado en el mobiliario del patio del Museo Experimental el Eco para el Pabellón del Eco 2014.Esta proyecto finalista dirige las posibles actividades al centro del espacio vacío; y por otro lado plantea cubrir la estela y el muro de colindancia del museo con un material reflejante para multiplicar el horizonte perceptible desde el patio.

Improving the efficiency of PV low-power processing circuits by selecting an optimal inductor current of the DC/DC converter

In the context of autonomous sensors powered by small-size photovoltaic (PV) panels, this work analyses how the efficiency of DC/DC-converter-based power processing circuits can be improved by an appropriate selection of the inductor current that transfers the energy from the PV panel to a storage unit. Each component of power losses (fixed, conduction and switching losses) involved in the DC/DC converter specifically depends on the average inductor current so that there is an optimal value of this current that causes minimal losses and, hence, maximum efficiency. Such an idea has been tested experimentally using two commercial DC/DC converters whose average inductor current is adjustable. Experimental results show that the efficiency can be improved up to 12% by selecting an optimal value of that current, which is around 300-350 mA for such DC/DC converters.

Microcontroller-based interface circuit for inductive sensors

This work proposes a fully-digital interface circuit for the measurement of inductive sensors using a low-cost microcontroller (µC) and without any intermediate active circuit. Apart from the µC and the sensor, the circuit just requires an external resistor and a reference inductance so that two RL circuits with a high-pass filter (HPF) topology are formed. The µC appropriately excites such RL circuits in order to measure the discharging time of the voltage across each inductance (i.e. sensing and reference) and then it uses such discharging times to estimate the sensor inductance. Experimental tests using a commercial µC show a non-linearity error (NLE) lower than 0.5%FSS (Full-Scale Span) when measuring inductances from 1 mH to 10 mH, and from 10 mH to 100 mH.

Análisis de los acelerogramas de la serie de Adra (Almería): diciembre 1993 a enero 1994

Se analizan en este trabajo los datos acelerográficos asociados a los dos sismos principales de la denominada serie de Adra. Esta serie está constituida por un conjunto de terremotos de magnitud mb=5.0 que ocurrieron durante los meses de diciembre de 1993 y enero de 1994 en la provincia de Almería, representando el primer caso de registro de gran número de acelerogramas (terremotos principales y replicas) en España.
