  • Coordination of autonomous vehicles using a mixed-integer LPV-MPC planner 

    Samada Rigo, Sergio Emil; Puig Cayuela, Vicenç; Nejjari Akhi-Elarab, Fatiha; Sarrate Estruch, Ramon (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2024)
    Conference report
    Open Access
    This work addresses the problem of coordinating multiple autonomous vehicles. In particular, an optimal planner based on Model Predictive Control (MPC) is designed for each vehicle, using the linear parameter-varying (LPV) ...
  • Automatic distribution of PRVs for leakage reduction 

    Pérez Magrané, Ramon; Roca Puntí, Guillem; Grau Torrent, Sergi (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2024)
    Conference report
    Open Access
    In this work, an automatic distribution of the pressure reduction valves (PRVs) is proposed. First, a well-calibrated hydraulic model is required. The model of Manresa, a city of Catalunya in the Mediterranean area, was ...
  • Absenteeism in maritime education: insights, challenges, and innovative solutions 

    Castells Sanabra, Marcel·la; Mas de les Valls Ortiz, Elisabet; Barahona Fuentes, Claudia; Borén Altés, Clara; Fernández Canti, Rosa M.; Mujal Colilles, Anna (Massachusetts Maritime Academy, 2024)
    Conference report
    Open Access
    Students’ attendance at classes is a measure that reflects students’ enthusiasm for the course and their status in the university. University-level absenteeism is influenced by various factors, ranging from academic ...
  • Development of a graph dynamic sectorization tool using QGIS/PostgreSQL to plan and operate water distribution networks 

    Torret Requena, Xavier; Grau Torrent, Sergi; Pérez Magrané, Ramon (Universitat Politècnica de València, 2022)
    Conference report
    Open Access
    This paper presents a definition of different types of sectorization used by water distribution companies, as well as a methodology for their identification and application in the dynamic zoning of water distribution ...
  • Leak localisation methos using a detailed hydraulic model combined with high resolution pressure sensors applied to a real network 

    Grau Torrent, Sergi; Pérez Magrané, Ramon; Torret, Xavier; Casado, David (Universitat Politècnica de València, 2022)
    Conference lecture
    Restricted access - publisher's policy
    The objective has been the elaboration of a method of locating specific and background leaks in hydraulic models. We have worked with high-resolution hydraulic models with high resolution pressure sensors. The method has ...
  • A contribution to students’ assessment adjusts of multiple choice questionnaires with fuzzy logic 

    Domingo Peña, Joan; Martínez García, Herminio (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC), 2022)
    Conference report
    Open Access
    In University environment, it is common to use multiple-choice objective tests with three or four possible answers, of which only one is correct and the rest are erroneous. In this type of tests, usually the wrong answers ...

  • Disinfection by products estimation in a water distribution network 

    Vinardell Magre, Laura; Jubany Güell, Irene; Pérez Magrané, Ramon (2022)
    Conference report
    Open Access
    Even though disinfection is necessary to ensure water safety for human consumption, some disinfectants produce disinfection by-products (DBPs) that may be dangerous for human health. Current European legislation obligates ...
  • Ensemble model-based method for time series sensors’ data validation and imputation applied to a real waste water treatment plant
