Preliminary study and design of the avionics system for an eVTOL aircraft.

The project consists of the study, creation, implementation, and development of the avionics system of an electric Vertical Take-Off and Landing (eVTOL) airplane for an ongoing project from the company ONAEROSPACE. The plane is intended to be for 7 passengers and 1 pilot, with a maximum range of 1000+ km. The fuselage will be formed of carbon fiber composite to reduce weight and it will use electric motors powered by batteries. The avionics system will provide the aircraft with communication and navigation systems, an autonomous Take-Off (T/O) and landing system, as well as the development of cockpit management systems. This document is divided into two parts. The first part begins with the study of all the necessary tools for communication and navigation systems. That means all compulsory antennas and sensors to obtain information about the surroundings (weather, obstacles, other planes¿). The intern communication network to send data from these sensors and antennas to main flight management systems is also studied in this first part. The second part of the project is dedicated to cabin cockpit systems and the study for the future development of autonomous systems. The cabin will have a full-glass cockpit, with touchable screens and an intelligent voice assistant. It will be very ergonomic and simple, with a lot of space in the cabin. In order to have an idea of the cost of the implementation of all the systems for the aircraft, a weight and cost estimation analysis are done at the end of each section. The last part of the project consists of the study of the design of a virtual intelligent voice assistant and the implementation of autonomous systems. Nowadays, the virtual intelligent voice assistant is an artificial intelligence system that works as a pilot monitoring system which assists the pilot in order to decrease the pilot¿s workload. The future idea is that the pilot could tell commands to the voice assistant and do nothing with the hands, just control that everything works correctly. Regarding the autonomous system, the conclusion is that with the existent technology is not possible today. Nevertheless, in the future, when fully autonomous aircraft are possible, the idea is that although being fully autonomous, the pilot can take the control of the aircraft at any moment.OutgoingObjectius de Desenvolupament Sostenible::9 - Indústria, Innovació i InfraestructuraObjectius de Desenvolupament Sostenible::11 - Ciutats i Comunitats Sostenible

El agua y las Baleares

Este material se dirige a los escolares de las islas Baleares iniciando una campaña de educación ambiental desde la pespectiva que éstos pueden motivar a los adultos para mejorar el entorno. Tiene la posibilidad de ser trabajado conjuntamente por maestros y alumnos, así como en diversas asignaturas. Resumen tomado de la publicaciónSe centra el trabajo en un tema tan concreto como el agua, un recurso al que hay que prestar una doble atención primero por su importancia en la vida de nuestro planeta y en segundo lugar por la consideración especial que merece en el caso de las Islas Baleares. Plantea caminos e interrogantes a nuevos conocimientos integradores, es una sugerencia de desarrollo curricular de una unidad didáctica donde se plantean unos objetivos, un cuerpo de conocimientos y unas actividades. No es un trabajo terminado y por lo tanto puede generar nuevos objetivos, conocimientos y actividades. Se pretende que el alumnado reconozca la importancia del agua en la vida, considere este líquido esencial como un recurso natural escaso y tome consciencia de su problemática.BalearesES
