Hybrid Solutions for Mechatronics. Applications to modeling and controller design.
… sys- tems is one of the main objectives in mechatronics engineering. When approaching the problem of controlling physical or digital systems, the dynamical models have been historically divided into continuous-time, described by differential equations, and discrete-time, described by …

Design of a ground-deployed sensor for detecting the sag of Overhead Transmission Lines by measurement of the magnetic field
The main constraint on the capacity of an overhead transmission line (OTL) is the sag in the wires caused by thermal expansion. A sensor network that monitors the sag in real time could allow operators to run transmission lines above their designed capacity. Most commercial sensor systems deploy …
