El objetivo del presente estudio es el análisis de un sistema complejo, el Acuífero de la Mancha Occidental, mediante un modelo numérico de simulación que represente de la manera más rigurosa posible la evolución del Sistema Acuífero 23. Este modelo se realiza en régimen permanente con una rigurosa configuración del sistema desde el punto de vista geológico y geométrico. De esta forma se deja iniciado y planeado un modelo y su estructura que será una base real de futuras formulaciones transitorias, base de los sucesivos análisis de explotación y predicción. . Las distintas situaciones que en las últimas décadas ha experimentado el Sistema 23, soluciones que se han dado para las mismas, y los posibles planes de actuación que se podrían llevar a cabo en un futuro frente a condiciones cambiantes de clima y explotación se podrán estudiar a partir del presente modelo de simulación numérica. ABSTRACT The main purpose of this study is to analyses a complex system such as Western La Mancha Aquifer by the use of a numeric model that simulates as accurately as possible the evolution of Aquifer 23. This model is made in steady state with a thorough configuration of the system from both the geological and geometric point of view. Therefore, it is left initiated with a planned model and its structure which will be used as a real base for following transient flow simulations that also will be the foundation of subsequent prediction and exploitation analysis. The different situations that Aquifer 23 has experienced during the last decades; the solutions that have been given for them; and the possible plans that would be implemented in the future in order to deal with the changing environmental and exploitation conditions will be able to be studied using this model.

Eutectic temperature and composition in the CuO–TiO2 pseudobinary system have been experimentally determined in air by means differential thermal analysis (DTA), thermogravimetry (TG) and hot-stage microscopy (HSM). Samples of the new eutectic composition treated at different temperatures have been characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray absorption near-edge structural spectroscopy (XANES) to identify phases and to determine the Cu valence state, respectively. The results show that the eutectic temperature in air is higher by 100 °C (∼1000 °C) for a Ti-richer composition (XTiO2=25 mol%) than the one calculated in the literature. The reduction of Cu2+ to Cu+ takes places at about 1030 °C. The existence of Cu2TiO3 and Cu3TiO4 has been confirmed by XRD in the temperature range between 1045 and 1200 °C.

In this work a novel wake-up architecture for wireless sensor nodes based on ultra low power FPGA is presented. A simple wake up messaging mechanism for data gathering applications is proposed. The main goal of this work is to evaluate the utilization of low power configurable devices to take advantage of their speed, flexibility and low power consumption compared with traditional approaches, based on ASICs or microcontrollers, for frame decoding and data control. A test bed based on infrared communications has been built to validate the messaging mechanism and the processing architecture.

La puesta en marcha de las titulaciones adaptadas al RD 1393/2007 constituía la oportunidad largamente esperada de implementar una serie de proyectos ilusionantes asociados a la Declaración de Bolonia y a su “nebulosa”. Entre ellos, la mejora del rendimiento en la Acción Tutorial constituye, para la UPM, uno de los aspectos prioritarios. En ese ámbito, la E.U. de Ingeniería Técnica Industrial ha desarrollado, desde el curso 2010/2011, un proyecto denominado “La Hora TutHora”, cuyo objetivo consiste en actuar desde Ordenación Académica para favorecer la mencionada Acción Tutorial. Este artículo expone los resultados que han podido medirse tras dos años de vida del proyecto, las conclusiones que pueden obtenerse y el planteamiento de propuestas de mejora.

El objetivo de este proyecto de investigación es analizar el conjunto de las diez series temporales, relativas a los precios de diez metales (plata, aluminio, oro, cobre, níquel, paladio, plomo, platino, estaño y zinc), comprendidos en el periodo de enero de 2008 a septiembre de 2013, con el objetivo de reducir la dimensionalidad del conjunto de datos y facilitar la comparación de los mismos y la predicción de valores futuros. Para ello pretendemos aplicar una metodología, que nos permitirá deducir, a partir de una serie resumen y de unos coeficientes multiplicativos, la evolución del comportamiento de cualquier otro metal. Pese a la escasísima documentación existente al respecto, se valorará e intentará aplicarse una reciente metodología denominada “Metodología del haz de rectas” Como herramienta de trabajo para los programas informáticos desarrollados y para representar las gráficas asociadas al proyecto, se utilizó Matlab®, habida cuenta de su enorme potencia y por disponer de un lenguaje de programación sencillo y lo suficientemente versátil para las tareas que necesitamos.

En el siguiente proyecto se pretende obtener el modelo tridimensional de una pieza del Museo Naval de Madrid, el modelo MNM-23, correspondiente a una fragata de 34 cañones, de dimensiones aproximadas 110*30*39 cm, a partir de fotogrametría de objeto cercano y topografía. La pieza se encontró en un lamentable estado de conservación y en 1995 el restauradormodelista del Museo Naval de Madrid, Miguel Godoy Sánchez, hizo un gran trabajo de restauración de la misma para poder contemplar con auténtico deleite cada uno de los cientos de detalles, que por dentro tenía una fragata del siglo XVIII, una obra perfecta de ingenio,cálculo, estructuras, medidas y estudio, a la vez que arte; todo ello combinado en su justa medida es un claro ejemplo y una gran elección de arquitectura naval de la época. El carácter no invasivo de la fotogrametría y la alta precisión que ofrece hace que este sea un método muy apropiado para este tipo de trabajos. Apoyándonos en estas técnicas, se pretende obtener una precisión entorno al milímetro en el modelo final. Así mismo se investigará y describirá una metodología de trabajo eficiente, rápida y de bajo coste que pretende sustituir otras metodologías utilizadas en este tipo de proyectos.

El objetivo de este proyecto de investigación es comparar dos técnicas matemáticas de aproximación polinómica, las aproximaciones según el criterio de mínimos cuadrados y las aproximaciones uniformes (“minimax”). Se describen tanto el mercado actual del cobre, con sus fluctuaciones a lo largo del tiempo, como los distintos modelos matemáticos y programas informáticos disponibles. Como herramienta informática se ha seleccionado Matlab®, cuya biblioteca matemática es muy amplia y de uso muy extendido y cuyo lenguaje de programación es suficientemente potente para desarrollar los programas que se necesiten. Se han obtenido diferentes polinomios de aproximación sobre una muestra (serie histórica) que recoge la variación del precio del cobre en los últimos años. Se ha analizado la serie histórica completa y dos tramos significativos de ella. Los resultados obtenidos incluyen valores de interés para otros proyectos. Abstract The aim of this research project is to compare two mathematical models for estimating polynomial approximation, the approximations according to the criterion of least squares approximations uniform (“Minimax”). Describes both the copper current market, fluctuating over time as different computer programs and mathematical models available. As a modeling tool is selected main Matlab® which math library is the largest and most widely used programming language and which is powerful enough to allow you to develop programs that are needed. We have obtained different approximating polynomials, applying mathematical methods chosen, a sample (historical series) which indicates the fluctuation in copper prices in last years. We analyzed the complete historical series and two significant sections of it. The results include values that we consider relevant to other projects

Traumatic brain injury and spinal cord injury have recently been put under the spotlight as major causes of death and disability in the developed world. Despite the important ongoing experimental and modeling campaigns aimed at understanding the mechanics of tissue and cell damage typically observed in such events, the differenti- ated roles of strain, stress and their corresponding loading rates on the damage level itself remain unclear. More specif- ically, the direct relations between brain and spinal cord tis- sue or cell damage, and electrophysiological functions are still to be unraveled. Whereas mechanical modeling efforts are focusing mainly on stress distribution and mechanistic- based damage criteria, simulated function-based damage cri- teria are still missing. Here, we propose a new multiscale model of myelinated axon associating electrophysiological impairment to structural damage as a function of strain and strain rate. This multiscale approach provides a new framework for damage evaluation directly relating neuron mechanics and electrophysiological properties, thus provid- ing a link between mechanical trauma and subsequent func- tional deficits.

Neuronal growth is a complex process involving many intra- and extracellular mechanisms which are collaborating conjointly to participate to the development of the nervous system. More particularly, the early neocortical development involves the creation of a multilayered structure constituted by neuronal growth (driven by axonal or dendritic guidance cues) as well as cell migration. The underlying mechanisms of such structural lamination not only implies important biochemical changes at the intracellular level through axonal microtubule (de)polymerization and growth cone advance, but also through the directly dependent stress/stretch coupling mechanisms driving them. Efforts have recently focused on modeling approaches aimed at accounting for the effect of mechanical tension or compression on the axonal growth and subsequent soma migration. However, the reciprocal influence of the biochemical structural evolution on the mechanical properties has been mostly disregarded. We thus propose a new model aimed at providing the spatially dependent mechanical properties of the axon during its growth. Our in-house finite difference solver Neurite is used to describe the guanosine triphosphate (GTP) transport through the axon, its dephosphorylation in guanosine diphosphate (GDP), and thus the microtubules polymerization. The model is calibrated against experimental results and the tensile and bending mechanical stiffnesses are ultimately inferred from the spatially dependent microtubule occupancy. Such additional information is believed to be of drastic relevance in the growth cone vicinity, where biomechanical mechanisms are driving axonal growth and pathfinding. More specifically, the confirmation of a lower stiffness in the distal axon ultimately participates in explaining the controversy associated to the tensile role of the growth cone.
