    • Adjustment of discrete load changes in feeder databases for improving medium-term demand forecasting 
      Paredes, Gonzalo; Vargas Díaz, Luis (Institution of Engineering and Technology, 2017)
      A discrete load change (DLC) event may be described as an abrupt change in feeder demand. These events are due to network reconfigurations, or the connection/disconnection of large consumers to the grid. This phenomenon ...
    • Building a threshold cryptographic distributed HSM with docker containers 
      Muñoz, Caterina; Montoto, Francisco; Bustos Jiménez, Javier; Cifuentes, Francisco (IEEE, 2017)
      The Domain Name System (DNS) has evolved to support the exponential growth of the Internet, by relying heavily on a highly distributed infrastructure. Nevertheless, trust between server must exist in order to guarantee ...
    • Control and Grid Integration of MW-Range Wind and Solar Energy Conversion Systems 
      Cárdenas, Roberto; Pérez, Marcelo; Clare, Jon (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2017)
      Solar-based energy generation has increased by more than ten times over the same period. In total, worldwide electrical energy consumption increased by approximately 6340 TWh from 2003 to 2013. To meet the challenges created ...
    • Demo: A prototype for a platoon-based cyclist cooperative system 
      Salamanca, Juan; Céspedes Umaña, Sandra; Vinasco, Daniel; Yáñez, Alexis (IEEE, 2017)
      Innovative solutions for smart transportation involve the integration of communication technologies, mobile applications, control mechanisms, and human-to-machine interfaces. In this demo we present the prototype of a ...
    • Network allocation of BESS with voltage support capability for improving the stability of power systems 
      Cifuentes, Nicolás; Rahmann, Claudia; Valencia, Felipe; Alvarez, Ricardo (Institution of Engineering and Technology, 2019)
      © 2019 Institution of Engineering and Technology. All rights reserved.The stability of future power systems will be challenged by high shares of converter-based generation technologies (CBGTs). To prevent instability ...
    • Process for refining copper in solid state 
      Villarroel, (Elsevier Science Ltd, 1999)
      A process for removing impurities from copper concentrate prior to smelting is presented here. The concentrate is subjected to thermal decomposition in a vacuum chamber at temperatures of about 950 °C. This pretreatment ...
