This article presents a new measuring and on water coaching device for rowing called “Accrow” which measures the boat acceleration with an acceleration sensor (50 Hz) and boat velocity with GPS (4 Hz). The data were analysed with the special…

The exponential increase of subjective, user-generated content since the birth of the Social Web, has led to the necessity of developing automatic text processing systems able to extract, process and present relevant knowledge. In this paper, we tackle the Opinion…

This paper uses dynamic general equilibrium and computational methods, inspired by the multi-sector growth model structure in Stephen Turnovsky's work, to develop a theory that unifies two of the traditional explanations of structural change: sector-biased technical change and non-homothetic preferences.…

Photopolymers are studied as holographic recording materials for recording computer-generated phase holograms. The recording was performed using a holographic copying process, in which the master is produced by means of a high resolution graphic device. To our knowledge it is…

Computer science studies possess a strong multidisciplinary vocation; most graduates do their professional work elsewhere of a computing environment, in collaboration with professionals from many different areas. However, the training offered in computer science studies lacks that multidisciplinary, focusing more…

La presente Tesis Doctoral tiene como objetivo general el empleo de sistemas sensoriales de visión y fuerza conjuntamente para realizar el guiado de robots en aquellas tareas en las que no solo se requiere controlar la trayectoria del robot sino…
