      Aginaga García, Jokin Upna Orcid; Iriarte Goñi, Xabier Upna Orcid; Plaza Puértolas, Aitor Upna Orcid; Mata, Vicente (ASME, 2018)   Artículo / Artikulua  OpenAccess
      Rehabilitation robots are increasingly being developed in order to be used by injured people to perform exercise and training. As these exercises do not need wide range movements, some parallel robots with lower mobility ...
    • Mode-displacement method for structural dynamic analysis of bio-inspired structures: a palm-tree stem subject to wind effects 

      Plaza Puértolas, Aitor Upna Orcid; Vargas-Silva, G.; Iriarte Goñi, Xabier Upna Orcid; Ros Ganuza, Javier Upna Orcid (Taylor & Francis, 2022)   Artículo / Artikulua  OpenAccess
      Biological materials (orthotropic materials), like wood, can offer good mechanical properties with a minimum amount of material, making their internal structure the suitable one to be applied on bio-inspired structures. ...
    • Symbolic multibody methods for real-time simulation of railway vehicles 

      Ros Ganuza, Javier Upna Orcid; Plaza Puértolas, Aitor Upna Orcid; Iriarte Goñi, Xabier Upna Orcid; Pintor Borobia, Jesús María Upna Orcid (Springer, 2018)   Artículo / Artikulua  OpenAccess
      In this work, recently developed state-of-the-art symbolic multibody methods are tested to accurately model a complex railway vehicle. The model is generated using a symbolic implementation of the principle of virtual ...
    • Trayectorias de máxima rigidez de un robot redundante actuando como soporte en el mecanizado de paredes delgadas 

      Aginaga García, Jokin Upna Orcid; García Cuesta, Iván; Iriarte Goñi, Xabier Upna Orcid; Plaza Puértolas, Aitor Upna Orcid (Universitat Politècnica de València, 2023)   Artículo / Artikulua  OpenAccess
      La precisión de un robot está ligada a su rigidez. En comparación con la máquina herramienta tradicional, los robots industriales tienen un gran espacio de trabajo como ventaja, pero una rigidez reducida como desventaja. ...
    • Triaxial accelerometer based azimuth estimator for horizontal axis wind turbines 

      Plaza Puértolas, Aitor Upna Orcid; Ros Ganuza, Javier Upna Orcid; Gainza, Gorka; Fuentes Lárez, José David (Elsevier, 2023)   Artículo / Artikulua  OpenAccess
      One of the elements that receives the greatest stresses is the main shaft. Its damage is directly related to the cyclical nature of its rotational motion. However, the vast majority of horizontal axis wind turbines (HAWT) ...
    • Ultra-low frequency multidirectional harvester for wind turbines 

      Castellano Aldave, Jesús Carlos; Carlosena García, Alfonso Upna Orcid; Iriarte Goñi, Xabier Upna Orcid; Plaza Puértolas, Aitor Upna Orcid (Elsevier, 2023)   Artículo / Artikulua  OpenAccess
