    Aluminum coated fiber optic sensor for enhancing flow rate measurement
    (SPIE, 2023) Rodríguez Rodríguez, Armando; Urroz Unzueta, José Carlos; Diéguez Elizondo, Pedro; Bravo Acha, Mikel; López-Amo Sáinz, Manuel; López Rodríguez, José Javier; Ingeniería; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Ingeniaritza; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoaren eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritzaren
    A water flow and velocity aluminum-coated Fiber Bragg Grating sensor system for open channels was designed, simulated and tested. The sensing head was designed, ruggedized and customized to measure velocities at different depths, in order to calculate the discharge in open channels. This paper shows, for the first time to our knowledge, the simulation of such kind of fiber sensors in open channels.

    Initiative to increment the number of women in STEM degrees: women, science and technology chair of the Public University of Navarre
    (IEEE, 2020) Aranguren Garacochea, Patricia; San Martín Biurrun, Idoia; Catalán Ros, Leyre; Martínez Ramírez, Alicia; Jurío Munárriz, Aránzazu; Díaz Lucas, Silvia; Pérez Artieda, Miren Gurutze; Gómez Fernández, Marisol; Barrenechea Tartas, Edurne; Estadística, Informática y Matemáticas; Ingeniería; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Estatistika, Informatika eta Matematika; Ingeniaritza; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoaren eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritzaren; Gobierno de Navarra / Nafarroako Gobernua; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa
    The Public University of Navarre joined with Navarre Government has created the Women, Science and Technology Chair. This chair arises due to the plummeting tendency of the percentage of women in STEM degrees with the aim of reversing this trend. The programme of activities is defined throughout this contribution by six activities: a Theatre Play, a Poster Award on Final Degree/Masters Project, The 1st Week of Women, Science and Technology, the Promotion of Technical Degrees in schools and high-schools, a Workshop about Gender Stereotypes and the Fostering of Women among Science and Environment. Each activity gained great success and the preset goals were highly accomplished, especially, the 1st Week of Women, Science and Technology activity. The latter achieved a great success both in participation and in repercussion, contributing to visualize the role of women in science and technology.

    Modal frequency and damping estimation of wind turbines: analysis of a wind farm
    (Springer, 2024-06-22) Legaz Catena, Asier; Zivanovic, Miroslav; Iriarte Goñi, Xabier; Plaza Puértolas, Aitor; Carlosena García, Alfonso; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoa eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritza; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Ingeniería; Ingeniaritza
    In this paper, we present an in-depth analysis carried out on several units of the same Wind Turbine (WT) model installed in a wind farm. We have collected simultaneous data under several different operating conditions ranging from the idling state to nominal power close to cut-out. Both frequency and damping parameters have been estimated for the first and second Fore-Aft (FA) and Side-Side (SS) tower modes. As far as we know, there are no previous publications combining data from so many turbines, operating conditions, and for a time period spanning several months. We have made use of a novel strategy to isolate the modes and minimize the influence of harmonics, using an algorithm previously proposed by the authors. The main conclusion is that estimated modal frequencies allow for a clear discrimination between turbines, whereas damping ratios, subjected to much wider deviations, do not seem to be very discriminant. We show here results for only one operating mode (nominal power), for which the method has been tuned. The analysis of other operating modes and longer periods, now under consideration, will allow for more conclusive results.

    An optical fiber sensor for Hg2+ detection based on the LSPR of silver and gold nanoparticles embedded in a polymeric matrix as an effective sensing material
    (MDPI, 2021-07-07) Martínez Hernández, María Elena; Sandúa Fernández, Xabier; Rivero Fuente, Pedro J.; Goicoechea Fernández, Javier; Arregui San Martín, Francisco Javier; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoa eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritza; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Ingeniería; Ingeniaritza; Institute for Advanced Materials and Mathematics - INAMAT2; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa
    In this work, an optical fiber sensor based on the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) phenomenon is presented as a powerful tool for the detection of heavy metals (Hg2+). The resultant sensing film was fabricated using a nanofabrication process, known as layer-by-layer embedding (LbL-E) deposition technique. In this sense, both silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) were synthesized using a synthetic chemical protocol as a function of a strict control of three main parameters: polyelectrolyte concentration, loading agent, and reducing agent. The use of metallic nanostructures as sensing materials is of great interest because well-located absorption peaks associated with their LSPR are obtained at 420 nm (AgNPs) and 530 nm (AuNPs). Both plasmonic peaks provide a stable real-time reference that can be extracted from the spectral response of the optical fiber sensor, giving a reliable monitoring of the Hg2+ concentration.

    The promising combination of thermoelectric generators with IoT technologies for autonomous monitoring systems
    (2019) Garacochea Sáenz, Amaia; Catalán Ros, Leyre; Casi Satrústegui, Álvaro; Gubía Villabona, Eugenio; Astrain Ulibarrena, David; Ingeniaritza; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoaren eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritzaren; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Ingeniería; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación
    Monitoring stations becomes essential in any volcanic system in the world but, because of their remote location, both the electricity supply and the communications represent a technological challenge. The present work studies the feasibility of an autonomous volcanic monitoring system powered by thermoelectric generators for one of the monitoring stations of the Teide National Park (Canary Island), where temperatures of 80°C at few centimeters from the surface are found. The stable generation and robustness of thermoelectricity in combination with a new communication system based on LoRa (a low power wireless technology) make this solution a good alternative.

    The Chair of Women, Science and Technology of the Universidad Pública de Navarra (UPNA) aims to increase the participation of women in the fields of science and technology. Scientific culture and dissemination are the main focus of the different actions of the Chair. These activities include: the theatrical performance "Yo quiero ser científica", experimental workshops and conferences and exhibitions for all audiences and ages. More than 6.000 people have seen the play, more than 1.500 secondary school students have participated in the workshops and the audiovisual material has received more than 20.000 visits.
