[EN] The enormous amount of containers handled at ports hampers the efficiency of terminal operations. The optimization of crane movements is crucial for speeding up the loading and unloading of vessels. To this end, the ...
[EN] Strategies for design reuse play a fundamental role in the development of products that change and evolve over time. Design changes often involve modifications in the geometry of parts and assemblies, which are driven ...
[EN] Learning in AI planning tries to recognize past conducts to predict features that help improve action models.
We propose a constraint programming approach for learning the temporal features, i.e., the distribution of ...
[EN] Temperature is one of the most influential weather variables necessary for numerous studies, such as climate change, integrated water resources management, and water scarcity, among others. The temperature and ...
[EN] The parallel operation of inverters has many benefits, such as modularity and redundancy. However, the parallel connection of inverters produces circulating currents that may result in malfunctions of the system. In ...
[EN] In order to reduce the cost of PV facilities, the market requires low cost and highly reliable PV inverters, which must comply with several regulations. Some research has focused on decreasing the distortion of the ...

[EN] In this paper we present a Silverman-Ho algorithm-based method to obtain a realization of a polynomial matrix. This method provides the final formulation of a minimal realization directly from a full rank factorization ...
[EN] There are a good number of higher-order iterative methods for computing multiple zeros of nonlinear equations in the available literature. Most of them required first or higher-order derivatives of the involved function. ...
[EN] In its different versions, the CONTACT method developed by Prof. Kalker is the primary reference in wheel-rail contact mechanics. Despite adopting simplifications associated with the elastic behaviour of the solids ...
[EN] Celiac disease is a complex and autoimmune disorder caused by the ingestion of gluten affecting almost 1% of global population. Nowadays an effective treatment does not exist, and the only way to manage the disease ...
[EN] Currently, enterprises face changes in the labour structure, determined by demographic factors. Population ageing in Europe is a relevant issue that has to be carefully analysed to be prepared and adapt European aspects ...

[EN] In the last decade, full-waveform airborne laser scanning (ALSFW) has proven to be a promising tool for forestry applications. Compared to traditional discrete airborne laser scanning (ALSD), it is capable of registering ...
[EN] Humans use rather vague and imprecise words to express emotions. Therefore, fuzzy logic allows computational affective models to use emotions in the same way that human beings express them. However, people from different ...
[EN] In this article, we show how to introduce students to modeling while exposing the power of graph theory as a modeling tool. For that purpose, we propose a problem aimed at university students based on a game where the ...
