Knowledge integration within an applied mobile robot summer course

This paper presents the use of a mobile robot platform as an innovative educational tool in order to promote and integrate different curriculum knowledge. Hence, it is presented the acquired experience within a summer course named ldquoapplied mobile roboticsrdquo. The main aim of the course is to integrate different subjects as electronics, programming, architecture, perception systems, communications, control and trajectory planning by using the educational open mobile robot platform PRIM. The summer course is addressed to a wide range of student profiles. However, it is of special interests to the students of electrical and computer engineering around their final academic year. The summer course consists of the theoretical and laboratory sessions, related to the following topics: design & programming of electronic devices, modelling and control systems, trajectory planning and control, and computer vision systems. Therefore, the clues for achieving a renewed path of progress in robotics are the integration of several knowledgeable fields, such as computing, communications, and control sciences, in order to perform a higher level reasoning and use decision tools with strong theoretical base

Curriculum sequencing for an e-learning system based on learning styles

This work shows the use of adaptation techniques involved in an e-learning system that considers students' learning styles and students' knowledge states. The mentioned e-learning system is built on a multiagent framework designed to examine opportunities to improve the teaching and to motivate the students to learn what they want in a user-friendly and assisted environment

Tecnologia dels materials

Dins de la disciplina de Ciència i Enginyeria dels Materials, en la qual s’estudia la interrelació entre l’estructura, el processament, les propietats i les aplicacions dels materials, aquest llibre intenta descriure com les tècniques de processament industrial afecten l’estructura dels materials. L’enfocament del text se centra en el material, no pas en les tècniques emprades, temàtica més propera a les tecnologies de fabricació. El temari s’ha organitzat en cinc grans temes. Els quatre primers intenten donar els fonaments d’una tecnologia de processament (colament dels metalls, conformació per deformació, conformació per sinterització, tractaments tèrmics) mentre que el cinquè es dedica a la corrosió. El temari no inclou la tecnologia dels materials polímers que mereixeria un temari específic

Apunts de tecnologia de materials polímers [versió html]

Aquests apunts corresponen a una introducció a la tecnologia dels plàstics. Es tracta d'una visió general dels processos de transformació en la qual s'analitzen tant les tècniques concretes (injecció, extrusió...) com el comportament del material durant el processament. Per això, el temari comença amb una descripció de les propietats dels materials més rellevants per a la seva transformació (comportament tèrmic i reològic). Durant la descripció de les tècniques es posa l'èmfasi en com el processament pot modular les propietats del material. Tot i que el temari inclou tant els termoplàstics com els termoestables i elastòmers, donem més importància als primers
