Duatis Juárez, Jordi (Date of defense: 2016-02-05)
The aim of this work is to improve the reliability and safety of complex critical control systems by contributing to the systematic application of fault diagnosis. In order to ease the utilization of fault detection and ...
Tutivén Gálvez, Christian (Date of defense: 2018-09-27)
Renewable energy is an important sustainable energy in the world. Up to now, as an essential part of low emissions energy in a lot of countries, renewable energy has been important to the national energy security, and ...
Rosell Gratacòs, Jan (Date of defense: 1998-10-13)
This thesis proposes a fine-motion planner for assembly tasks in the plane considering two degrees of freedom of translation and one of rotation, taking into account modelling and sensing uncertainties and the effect of ...
Escobet i Canal, Antoni (Date of defense: 2012-09-17)
Aquesta tesi tracta sobre la metodologia del raonament inductiu difús (FIR, de l’anglès fuzzy inductive reasoning) aplicada a sistemes de detecció i diagnòstic de fallades. La metodologia FIR sorgeix de l’enfocament del ...
Rosales Gallegos, Carlos (Date of defense: 2013-01-10)
Several aspects have to be addressed before realizing the dream of a robotic hand-arm system with human-like capabilities, ranging from the consolidation of a proper mechatronic design, to the development of precise, ...
Samà Monsonís, Albert (Date of defense: 2013-10-03)
This thesis presents the original contributions of the author on the field of human movement analysis from signals captured by accelerometers. These sensors are capable of converting acceleration from some body parts into ...
Joseph Duran, Bernat (Date of defense: 2014-11-04)
Combined sewer networks carry wastewater and storm water together. During normal operation all the water is delivered to wastewater treatment plants, where it is treated before being released to surrounding natural water ...
Benedito, Ernest (Date of defense: 2010-04-08)
El propósito de la presente tesis es estudiar la influencia de la logística inversa en las capacidades de fabricación, refabricación y almacenaje óptimas de un sistema industrial. El interés por la logística inversa ha ...
Sepúlveda Toepfer, Carlos (Date of defense: 2008-04-03)
This thesis aims to develop control algorithms for irrigation canals in an experimental framework.<br/>These water transport systems are difficult to manage and present low efficiencies in practice. <br/>As a result, an ...
Meseguer Amela, Jordi (Date of defense: 2009-06-30)
An interval observer has been illustrated to be a suitable approach to detect and isolate faults affecting complex dynamical industrial systems. Concerning fault detection, interval observation is an appropriate passive ...
Diab, Mohammed (Date of defense: 2021-01-22)
This thesis develops a series of modeling and reasoning tools for knowledge-oriented manipulation planning in semi/unstructured environments. The main idea is to use high-level knowledge-based reasoning to capture a rich ...
Martínez Martínez, David (Date of defense: 2017-02-21)
Automated planning has proven to be useful to solve problems where an agent has to maximize a reward function by executing actions. As planners have been improved to salve more expressive and difficult problems, there is ...
Manzanares Brotons, Manuel (Date of defense: 2016-02-03)
When GPS is not operative in closed environments, mobile robots use different types of sensor in order to locate their position. However, the use of audiofrequency signals sensors is significative lower than other type of ...
Corominas Murtra, Andreu (Date of defense: 2011-09-23)
Mobile robotics research is currently interested on exporting autonomous navigation results achieved in indoor environments, to more challenging environments, such as, for instance, urban pedestrian areas. Developing mobile ...
Valencia Carreño, Rafael (Date of defense: 2013-04-19)
This thesis reports research on mapping, path planning, and autonomous exploration. These are classical problems in robotics, typically studied independently, and here we link such problems by framing them within a common ...
