Desarrollo verde e inclusivo en respuesta al cambio climático
(2016-04)Considerando que Costa Rica estará sumamente expuesta a la amenaza de un clima cambiante, la respuesta al cambio climático no puede esperar. Ya la mayor variabilidad climática y el fenómeno El Niño-Oscilación del Sur ... -
Development of a Mobile Application for Robust Tuning of One- and Two-Degree-of-Freedom PI and PID Controllers
(2015-12-01)This paper presents the development of a mobile application for Android systems devices, that helps in the control system design task. The application allows to compute the parameters of PID-type controllers. The controlled ... -
Does elevation influence the distributional patterns of tropical myxomycetes? A case study in Costa Rica
(2016)In order to test the hypothesis that elevation may be an important factor accounting for the distribution of myxomycetes in tropical forests, this project was designed and conducted in Costa Rica. Two lower elevational ... -
Effect of Densification Conditions on Physical Properties of Pellets Made From Sawmill Residues
(2016)Sawmill residues produced in wood processing of Pilon (Hyeronimaalchorneoides) and Eucalyptus (Eucalyptus spp) species, were used to fabricate pellets with experimental design equipment. Different manufacturing conditions ... -
Improved PID controller tuning rules for performance degradation/robustness increase trade-off
(2016-09)Definitely, robustness is an important feature that any control system must take into account, especially considering that the design is usually based on low-order linear models that represent the whole controlled process. ... -
Model reference pi controller tuning for second order inverse response and dead time processesand science
(2016-09-06)In this paper, a One-Degree-of-Freedom PI controller is optimized using the model reference tuning approach for a Second Order Inverse Response and Dead Time Process operating as a servo control. In addition, a graphic ... -
Monitoring the moin beach to control morphological changes due the construction of the moin container terminal, Limon
(2016-05-10)The Moin Container Terminal (MCT) is a project under construction that represents one of the largest investments in Latin American port facilities. The first stage consists of a seven million cubic meter sand fill constructed ... -
Multivariable decoupling set-point approach applied to a wastewater treatment plant
(2016-10-21)This paper presents a formulation for the inclusion of the second degree of freedom for MIMO system for decoupling purposes. The proposal is specially effective when combined with decentralized feedback controllers. Loop ... -
S809 Airfoil: Reynolds number effect on the aerodynamics of wind turbine blades
(2015-12)The objective of this work is to study the S809 airfoil profile used in the wind turbine blades of horizontal axis. Wind turbines developed rapidly in technological terms, showing reliability in generating energy from the ... -
Understanding the link between benefits from protected areas and their relationship with surrounding communities: an exploration in Costa Rica
(2016-03-12)Protected areas are an essential strategy in preserving natural resources. A central aspect of protected area management is to maintain and improve their relationship with surrounding communities given that local conflicts ... -
Use of drone technology and photogrammetry for beach morphodynamics and breakwater monitoring
(2016-05-10)Results from the use of UAV-based photogrammetry for monitoring changes in beaches and breakwaters are presented. Main recommendations are provided on the basis of lessons learned about the collection of reliable results ... -
Using the oxyhydrogen as an additive to increase the performance of an internal combustion engine
(2016-06)Reducing the pollution emission associated with oil combustion is gaining an increasing interest worldwide. Recently, Brown’s gas (HHO gas) has been introduced as an alternative clean source of energy. A system to generate ... -
Utilização de uma malha estruturada na análise do aerofólio s809
(2015-04)A análise numérica tem se tornado uma ferramenta essencial nas etapas do desenvolvimento de um projeto devido a sua capacidade de solução para fenômenos físicos descritos por leis de difícil solução analítica, economizando ...
