• Influence of Gas Desorption in a Safety Relief Valve Undergoing Cavitation 

      Lema, Marcos; Gosset, Anne; López Peña, Fernando (Korean Society for Fluid Machinery (KSFM), Chinese Society of Engineering Thermophysics (CSET), Turbomachinery Society of Japan (TSJ), IAHR Section on Hydraulic Machinery and Systems (IAHR), 2019-12-27)
      [Abstract]: In this study, the characterization of the flow through a safety relief valve (SRV) is performed in presence of cavitation and gas desorption. For this purpose, a transparent safety relief valve model is used ...
    • Liquid column separation due to fluid hammer occurrence in propellant lines 

      Lema, Marcos; Gosset, Anne; López Peña, Fernando; Steelant, Johan (American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, 2022-10-07)
      [Abstract]: When a pressurized liquid enters a pipeline with a closed-end and under vacuum conditions, the resulting liquid front suddenly is brought to rest at the end of the pipe. This type of flow configuration is found ...
    • On the feasibility of a real time stability assessment for fishing vessels 

      Santiago Caamaño, Lucía; Míguez González, Marcos; Díaz Casás, Vicente (Elsevier, 2018-04-24)
      [Abstract]: Fishing is one of the sectors with the highest number of accidents worldwide. Many of them are related to stability failures and affect mostly small and medium sized fishing vessels. One of the main reasons is ...
    • On-board monitoring and estimation of lateral accelerations through extreme value theory 

      Rosano, Gennaro; Begovic, Ermina; Boccadamo, Guido; Míguez González, Marcos; Rinauro, Barbara; Santiago Caamaño, Lucía (Elsevier, 2023-07-03)
      [Abstract]: Lateral accelerations experienced on-board of ships with high initial stability, especially in beam waves and at low speed, can be a source of risk for people and cargo. In the present paper, an on-board system ...
    • Open-ended learning: a conceptual framework based on representational redescription 

      Doncieux, Stephane; Filliat, David; Díaz-Rodríguez, Natalia; Hospedales, Timothy; Duro, Richard J.; Coninx, Alexandre; Roijers, Diederik M.; Benoît, Girard; Perrin, Nicolas; Sigaud, Oliver (Frontiers Media, 2018)
      [Abstract]: Reinforcement learning (RL) aims at building a policy that maximizes a task-related reward within a given domain. When the domain is known, i.e., when its states, actions and reward are defined, Markov Decision ...

    • Real-time detection of transverse stability changes in shing vessels 

      Santiago Caamaño, Lucía; Galeazzi, Roberto; Nielsen, Ulrik Dam; Míguez González, Marcos; Díaz Casás, Vicente (Elsevier, 2019-09-25)
      [Abstract]: Fishing is a very hazardous activity. Stability failures, caused many times by the crew lacking information related to the level of stability of the vessel, are among the most dangerous accidents affecting this ...
    • Robobo SmartCity: An Autonomous Driving Model for Computational Intelligence Learning through Educational Robotics 

      Naya-Varela, M.; Guerreiro-Santalla, Sara; Baamonde, Tamara; Bellas, Francisco (IEEE, 2023-02-13)
      [Abstract]: This paper presents the Robobo SmartCity model, an educational resource to introduce students in Computational Intelligence (CI) topics using educational robotics as the core learning technology. Robobo SmartCity ...
    • Setting up a mixed reality simulator for using teams of autonomous uavs in air pollution monitoring 

      López Peña, Fernando; Caamaño, Pilar; Varela, Gervasio; Orjales, Félix; Deibe Díaz, Álvaro (WIT Press, 2016-08-31)
      [Abstract]: A framework based on a mixed reality simulator for coordinating teams of autonomous Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) is been developed. This framework would serve as a tool to facilitate crossing the reality gap ...
