Fundamentals of Precision Agriculture
2023
Precision agriculture or precision farming is the targeted application of crop input according to the locally determined crop needs. Therefore, it is the geo-referenced application of crop inputs, whose rates should be those required by the crop. The most essential points of information about the topic being described are: overview; brief history of precision agriculture; theoretical basics of precision agriculture; precision agriculture cycle; geo-referenced measurement of within-field parameters; analysis and interpretation of geo-referenced data for mapping within-field parameters; spatially variable rate application of crop inputs; instruments for precision agriculture; current scenario…
Previsione delle prestazioni del veicolo su strada: stato dell’arte
2016
Questo lavoro contiene una rassegna dei metodi che sono usati per la previsione delle prestazioni del veicolo su strada, in dipendenza del motore installato. La prima parte mostra il calcolo delle resistenze al moto, cioè le forze che il veicolo deve vincere per avanzare sulle strade piane e in salita. Particolarmente interessante appare la parte che riguarda la resistenza aerodinamica, della quale si tratta di metodi sperimentali (galleria del vento), metodi empirici e metodi CFD. Si propone inoltre l’applicazione della norma CUNA sulla velocità per la determinazione dei consumi anche al calcolo dei coefficienti aerodinamici. La rassegna esclude la resistenza accidentale in curva perché no…
Choroidal thickness in glaucoma patients and glaucoma suspects measured by spectral domain coherence optical tomography
2012
Purpose: The aim of our study was to evaluate and compare retro-foveolar choroidal thickness (RFCT) of healthy subjects, individuals with intraocular hypertension, patients with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG), patients with normal tension glaucoma (NTG) and patients with primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG) by spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT).Methods: Sixty-five healthy eyes, 30 eyes with intraocular hypertension, 90 eyes with POAG, 30 eyes with NTG and 20 eyes with PACG were included in this cross-sectional study. RFCT, foveolar retinal thickness and average retinal nerve fiber layer thickness (RNFL) were measured by SD-OCT (Spectralis HRA-OCT, Heidelberg Engineer…
Problématiques de la nutrition en ophtalmologie – application à la dégénérescence maculaire liée à l’âge nutrition in ophthalmology – clinical applic…
2014
« Let food be your medicine. » This contribution from Hippocrates is still timely addressed, especially in the field of ophthalmology. Observational epidemiology reports close associations between food habits and the risk or prevention of several ocular pathologies such as cataract or Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD). Anti-oxidant vitamins, minerals and lipids are the nutrients that have been the most widely studied. Interventional epidemiology and experimental works partially corroborated these findings. Unexpectedly, the benefit of long chain omega 3 polyunsaturated fatty acids in the prevention of late AMD was not firmly established in Age-Related Eye Disease Study 2 (AREDS2). Neve…
Rezultātos balstītas pieejas izmantošana angļu valodas kursa medmāsām izveidē iesācēju līmeņa studentiem
2019
Šī darba mērķis ir salīdzināt dažādus mācību programmu izstrādes veidus un rezultātos balstītas pieejas efektivitāti medmāsu angļu valodas prasmes attīstībā. Šī darbā uzmanības centrā bija medmāsu vajadzības, kuras padomju laikā ir ieguvušas vidējo izglītību un mācījušās vācu valodu skolā; tāpēc medmāsām nav vai ir maz izpratnes par angļu valodas sistēmu. Šajā darbā izmantota rezultātos balstīta pieeja mācību programmu izstrādei, kas sākas ar studentu vajadzību identificēšanu, kam seko mācību materiālu izvēle un mācību plāna izstrāde. Lai sasniegtu minēto mērķi, tika izmantota teorētiskās un empīriskās triangulācijas metodes. Tika izstrādāta un izplatīta studentu vajadzību analīzes anketa, …
Use of Hybrid Methods (Hole-Drilling and Ring-Core) for the Analysis of the RS on Welded Joints
2022
The hybrid methods (HMs) for the residual stress (RS) analysis, such as the well-known hole-drilling method (HDM) and the ring-core method (RCM), have been widely developed since 80’. They are mechanical methods based on the partial relaxation of the RSs that occur when a proper geometry variation of the analysed component is introduced by drilling a hole (HDM) or a proper annular groove (RCM). The RS computation is performed by measuring the strains relaxed on surface and then by combine properly such measured strains with the influence coefficients previously computed accurately by using a numerical codes that consider the geometry of the particular component to be examined. In such a man…
Improved High-Fidelity IPMSM mathematical model Including Saturation, Cross-Coupling, Torque Ripple and Iron Loss effects
2022
For enhanced control algorithm design purposes, accurate and high-fidelity electrical machine mathematical models are fundamentals. Usually, accurate evaluation of electrical machine behaviour requires finite element analysis (FEA) with consequent high-computational times. This paper presents an improved high-fidelity Interior Permanent Magnet Synchronous Machine (IPMSM) mathematical model including saturation, cross-coupling, torque ripple and iron loss effects. This model has been implemented in Matlab®/Simulink environment and its parameters are implemented by the use of lookup tables. To validate the modelling approach proposed, a comparative analysis between the proposed Matlab®/Simuli…
BEMOD: A DSGE Model for the Spanish Economy and the Rest of the Euro Area
2006
In this paper we present the theoretical foundations and the simulation results obtained with a new dynamic general equilibrium model developed at the Banco de España for the Spanish economy and the rest of Euro area. The model is designed to help in simulating the effect of alternative shocks on the main aggregate variables. The main contributions of this work from a theoretical perspective are the modelling of a monetary union composed of two regions, the inclusion of housing as a durable good with its own sector of production and the degree and detail of the disaggregation considered for each country in the model, which replicates the Quarterly National Accounts. On the empirical side, t…
Impact Evaluation of Innovative Selective Harmonic Mitigation Algorithm for Cascaded H-Bridge Inverter on IPMSM Drive Application
2021
This paper presents a detailed analysis of the use of a novel Harmonic Mitigation algorithm for Cascaded H-Bridge Multilevel Inverter in electrical drives for the transportation field. For this purpose, an enhanced mathematical model of Interior Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (IPMSM), that takes into account simultaneously saturation, cross-coupling, spatial harmonics, and iron loss effects, has been used. In detail, this model allows estimating accurately the efficiency and the torque ripple of the IPMSM, crucial parameters for transportation applications. Moreover, two traditional pulse width modulation strategies, Sinusoidal Phase-Shifted and Switching Frequency Optimal Phase-Shifted…
