La preocupación colectiva por el calentamiento global está cambiando la forma en que nos comportamos y actuamos en nuestra vida diaria con el fin de reducir nuestra huella de CO2. Aunque según la climatología hay regiones donde debido a las altas temperaturas alcanzadas un sistema de acondicionamiento de respaldo es una necesidad para los...

To improve the energy efficiency and performance of buildings, it is essential to understand the factors that influence indoor thermal comfort. Through an extensive analysis of various variables, actions can be developed to enhance the thermal sensation of the occupants, promoting sustainability and economic benefits in conditioning systems....

The assessment of indoor thermal comfort in schools has become an essential object of study; however, applying existing thermal comfort criteria would assume children and adults have a similar range of thermal comfort, without considering discrepancies regarding their level of activity or their behavioural adaptation. Therefore, the objective...

Designing a Zero Energy Building (ZEB) requires an optimal choice of the materials of a building envelope. Different material properties and window areas could be selected to generate a set of possibilities of the design of a building, being the demand defined by its thermal characteristics. The energy demand of a building could be produced...

The transmission of concepts through games combines a practical application of the theory together with a potential increase in the interest and motivation of the students. This objective in the case of the transmission of agile project management concepts, through the Scrum methodology, is achieved through a game applied to logistics, which is...

El confort térmico, relacionado con el establecimiento de la temperatura en el interior de los edificios, es el componente más determinante en el confort global y un factor decisivo en la salud y productividad y en el consumo energético de los edificios. En el estudio y predicción del confort térmico tradicionalmente han predominado dos...

Although there are many fieldstudies to achieve a model of comfort in free running buildings, fewer studies focus on mixed-mode buildings. Moreover, there are even fewer examples of implementing such algorithms into a building automation system for testing its real validity. In this study, a methodology for implementing and validating an...

The objective of this study is to determine the factors that influ-ence "business performance" or the "role of entrepreneurs", as well as to analyse whether gender functions as a moderating variable, based on a survey conducted on a sample of 127 com-panies. Most of the literature in the tourism sector only considers hotel...

Los servicios de bicicletas compartidas son una realidad ecológica cada día más generalizada, que contribuye a la disminución del uso vehículos particulares. Este fenómeno está ocurriendo en todo tipo de ciudades. Los sistemas de bicicletas compartidas no se limitan a la creación de una infraestructura, estaciones de alquiler, y la disposición...

En España el abastecimiento y saneamiento del agua es competencia municipal, realizándose como gestión directa o indirecta a través de empresas públicas, privadas o mixtas. El presente trabajo recoge el análisis de las empresas que prestan este servicio en las capitales de provincia de España. De las 52 empresas analizadas, se han incluido 46...

Las roturas de tuberías en redes de abastecimiento de agua provocan serios problemas para las compañías encargadas de su gestión. Con objeto de reducir el número de roturas inesperadas, se propone un método predictivo de clasificación de las tuberías que utiliza la regresión logística, junto con técnicas avanzadas de procesamiento de datos,...

The application of the principles of sustainability to the implementation of urban freight policies requires the estimation of all the costs and externalities involved. We focus here on the case of access time windows, which ban the access of freight vehicles to central urban areas in many European cities. Even though this measure seeks to...

The study of the thermal comfort of the occupants of a building represents an important challenge, due to its close relation with energy efficiency. Facing the application of set-point temperatures, the adaptive comfort model proposes the linking of the comfort temperature to the outdoor temperature which would potentially reduce the use of the...
