Research

Ongoing research projects:

  • Structural damage detection in infrastructures and buildings combining advanced geomatic techniques and stochastic analysis methods (National Research Plan).
  • Inland wetlands of Northern Iberian Peninsula: management and restauration of mines and wet environments (European Project: Tremedal - Life Nature).
  • Increasing yield on Tungsten and Tantalum ore production by means of advanced and flexible control on crushing, milling and separation process (European Project: H2020).
  • BLOFOR: graphic simulation environment for forensic analysis ofrockfall (Regional research plan)

Ongoing contracts with companies

  • UMIR: Measurement unit for remote inspection.
  • Research in new multivariate model of CTOD value according to the microstructural, mechanical and chemical properties of thick welds in the Offshore Wind Energy Sector.
