Wave characteristics on the Pacific coast of Costa Rica for energy production
(2020-02-12)
The iMARES group of the University of Costa Rica has carried out a continuous measurement of the Pacific waves of Costa Rica, from which wave characteristics have been determined and how these can influence the ...
La inexactitud del número de Mach de la onda de choque en el tubo de choque
The inaccuracy of the Mach number of the shock wave in the shock tube
(2018-10-10)
Si un sistema de medición utilizado para medir un evento dinámico, es calibrado en régimen estacionario, los parámetros reportados no son adecuados para evaluar su exactitud operativa.

Field Measurements and Numerical Modeling of Wave Climate in the Pacific Coast of Costa Rica
(2022)
The wave climate of the Pacific coast of Costa Rica displays singularities that are inadequately included in global numerical models of wave generation and propagation. This shortcoming increases the uncertainty associated ...
Use of drone technology and photogrammetry for beach morphodynamics and breakwater monitoring
(2016-05-10)
Results from the use of UAV-based photogrammetry for monitoring changes in beaches and breakwaters are presented. Main recommendations are provided on the basis of lessons learned about the collection of reliable results ...

Development of a dynamic standard to evaluate the metrological performance of pressure transducers with electrical output
(2022-05)
Esta tesis doctoral analiza los problemas conceptuales y prácticos asociados con el desarrollo de un patrón de presión dinámica para calibrar transductores de presión con salidas eléctricas de baja amplitud (entre 0,28 y ...
Development of a dynamic pressure standard of low amplitudes and frequencies
(2021-11-08)
The height of the gravitational wave is an influential magnitude in the estimation of its energy content, a
very important parameter in the design of maritime structures such as piers and breakwaters, however,
there are ...
