Publicación Physics Experiments at the UNEDLabs Portal(International Federation of Engineering Education Societies (IFEES), 2012-01-22) Dormido Canto, Sebastián; Sánchez, José; Torre Cubillo, Luis de la; Heradio Gil, Rubén; Carreras, Carmen; Sánchez Fernández, Juan Pedro; Yuste, ManuelUNEDLabs is a web portal based on a free, modern, open source, and well-known learning management system: Moodle. This portal joins two theme networks of virtual and remote laboratories (one for Control Engineering and another one for Physics, named AutomatL@bs and FisL@bs, respectively) together. AutomatL@bs has been operative for five years now. Following AutomatL@bsâ?? scheme, FisL@bs was created as a network of remote and virtual laboratories for physics university education via the Internet to offer students the possibility of performing hands-on experiences in different fields of physics in two ways: simulation and real remote operation. Now, both FisL@bs and AutomatL@bs join together (while maintaining their independency) into an unique new web portal called UNEDLabs. This work focuses on this new web environment and gives a detailed account of a novel way in Physics to let distance learning students gain practical experience autonomously. This paper explains how the new portal works and the software tools used for creating it. In addition, it also describes the physics experiments which are already operative.Publicación An event-based adaptation of the relay feedback experiment for frequency response identification of stable processes(Elsevier, 2023-04-13) Sánchez Moreno, José; Torre Cubillo, Luis de la; Chacón Sombría, Jesús; Dormido Canto, Sebastián; Elsevier; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0898-3462An event-based modification of the classical relay feedback experiment without the inclusion of additional elements (integrator, time delay, . . . ) for identification of the spectrum of stable processes between zero and the phase cross-over frequency is presented. By inserting an event-based sampler in the control loop, the natural behaviour of a classical relay is simulated and the system is forced to work in two modes. The event-based sampler activates the first mode by sending control actions to the process every time the error signal crosses zero; this mode is to discover the approximated value of the cross-over frequency ω180◦ . During the second mode, the event-based sampler sends samples to the process simulating that the error signal crosses zero at ω180◦ /N where N is the number of points to identify in the range 0 ≤ ω ≤ ω180◦ . One advantage of this procedure is that the logic used in an already existing relay feedback experiment to fit a transfer function model or tune a controller could be maintained just replacing the relay block by the event-based sampler block presented in the paper. Simulations and experiments with different processes and in presence of noise demonstrate the effectivity of the procedure.Publicación Open and Low-Cost Virtual and Remote Labs on Control Engineering(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2015-06-15) Sáenz Valiente, Jacobo; Chacón; Jesús; Torre Cubillo, Luis de la; Antonio Visioli; Dormido Canto, SebastiánThis paper presents an open course in the University Network of Interactive Laboratories, which offers several virtual and remote laboratories on automatic control, accessible to anyone. All the details on one of these labs (a two electric coupled drives system that allows performing control practices in a 2 × 2 MIMO system with industrial applications) and the activities that can be performed with it are given. We use a low-cost solution for developing the virtual and remote labs shared in this open course, based on the use of a free authoring tool Easy Java/Javascript Simulations (EJsS) for building the laboratories' user interfaces and a cheap development platform board (BeagleBone Black). The virtual and remote labs are deployed into a free Learning Management System (Moodle) Web environment that facilitates their management and maintenance.Publicación Providing collaborative support to virtual and remote laboratories(IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers), 2013-06-04) Torre Cubillo, Luis de la; Heradio Gil, Rubén; Jara, Carlos A.; Sanchez, Jose; Dormido Canto, Sebastián; Torres, Fernando; Candelas, Francisco A.Virtual and remote laboratories (VRLs) are e-learning resources that enhance the accessibility of experimental setups providing a distance teaching framework which meets the student's hands-on learning needs. In addition, online collaborative communication represents a practical and a constructivist method to transmit the knowledge and experience from the teacher to students, overcoming physical distance and isolation. This paper describes the extension of two open source tools: (1) the learning management system Moodle, and (2) the tool to create VRLs Easy Java Simulations (EJS). Our extension provides: (1) synchronous collaborative support to any VRL developed with EJS (i.e., any existing VRL written in EJS can be automatically converted into a collaborative lab with no cost), and (2) support to deploy synchronous collaborative VRLs into Moodle. Using our approach students and/or teachers can invite other users enrolled in a Moodle course to a real-time collaborative experimental session, sharing and/or supervising experiences at the same time they practice and explore experiments using VRLs.Publicación Virtual and Remote Labs in Control Education: a Survey(Elsevier, 2016-11-14) Heradio Gil, Rubén; Torre Cubillo, Luis de la; Dormido Canto, SebastiánVirtual and remote labs have been around for almost twenty years and while they have been constantly gaining popularity since their appearance, there are still many people in the control education community who either do not know many details about them or do not know them at all. What are their benefits? Which examples of virtual and remote labs for control education can be found in the Internet and how spread and popular are they? What are the current trends and issues in the implementation and deployment of these tools? And the future ones? These and others are some of the questions we answer in this paper, trying to bring the attention of the control education community to these tools which, we believe, are meant to have an increasing importance and relevance for the 21st century students.Publicación The Ball and Beam System: A Case Study of Virtual and Remote Lab Enhancement With Moodle(IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers), 2015-06-10) Torre Cubillo, Luis de la; Guinaldo Losada, María; Heradio Gil, Rubén; Dormido Canto, SebastiánWeb-based labs are key tools for distance education that help to illustrate scientific phenomena, which require costly or difficult-to-assemble equipment. Easy Java Simulations (EJS) is an authoring tool that speeds up the creation of these kind of labs. An excellent proof of the EJS potential is the open source physics (OSP) repository, which hosts hundreds of free EJS labs. Learning management systems, such as Moodle, provide social contexts where students interact with each other. The work described in this paper looks for the synergy of both tools, EJS and Moodle, by supporting the deployment of EJS labs into Moodle and thus enriching them with social features (e.g., chat, forums, and videoconference). To test this approach, the authors have created the ball and beam lab, which helps students of automatic control engineering to train different advanced techniques (robust, fuzzy, and reset control), and compare their performance in relation to a conventional proportional-integral-derivative control.Publicación Two web-based laboratories of the FisL@bs network: Hooke's and Snell's laws(IOP Publishing; European Physical Society, 2011-02-09) Torre Cubillo, Luis de la; Sánchez, José; Dormido Canto, Sebastián; Sánchez, J.P.; Yuste, M.; Carreras, C.FisL@bs is a network of remote and virtual laboratories for physics university education via the Internet that offers students the possibility of performing hands-on experiments in different fields of physics in two ways: simulation and real remote operation. This paper gives a detailed account of a novel way in physics in which distance learning students can gain practical experience autonomously. FisL@bs uses the same structure as AutomatL@bs, a network of virtual and remote laboratories for learning/teaching of control engineering, which has been in operation for four years. Students can experiment with the laboratories offered using an Internet connection and a Java-compatible web browser. This paper, specially intended for university educators but easily comprehensible even for undergraduate students, explains how the portal works and the hardware and software tools used to create it. In addition, it also describes two physics experiments already available: spring elasticity and the laws of reflection and refraction.Publicación Automated assessment and monitoring support for competency-based courses(IEEE Xplore, 2019-03-28) Vargas, Héctor; Heradio Gil, Rubén; Chacón, Jesús; Torre Cubillo, Luis de la; Farias, Gonzalo; Galán, Daniel; Dormido Canto, SebastiánCompetency-based education is becoming increasingly adopted by higher education institutions all over the world. This paper presents a framework that assists instructors in this pedagogical paradigm and its corresponding open-source implementation. The framework supports the formal definition of competency assessment models and the students' evaluation under these models. It also provides distinct learning analytics for identifying course shortcomings and validating corrective actions instructors have introduced in a course. Finally, this paper reports the benefits of applying our framework to an engineering course at the Pontifical Catholic University, Valparaíso, Chile for three years.Publicación The photoelectric effect and study of the diffraction of light: Two new experiments in UNILabs virtual and remote laboratories network(Società Italiana di Fisica, 2016-02-12) Sánchez Fernández, Juan Pedro; Sáenz Valiente, Jacobo; Torre Cubillo, Luis de la; Carreras, Carmen; Yuste, Manuel; Heradio Gil, Rubén; Dormido Canto, SebastiánThis work describes two experiments: “study of the diffraction of light: Fraunhofer approximation” and “the photoelectric effect”. Both of them count with a virtual, simulated, version of the experiment as well as with a real one which can be operated remotely. The two previous virtual and remote labs (built using Easy Java(script) Simulations) are integrated in UNILabs, a network of online interactive laboratories based on the free Learning Management System Moodle. In this web environment, students can find not only the virtual and remote labs but also manuals with related theory, the user interface description for each application, and so on.Publicación What remote labs can do for you(AIP Publishing, 2016-04-01) Torre Cubillo, Luis de la; Sánchez Fernández, Juan Pedro; Dormido Canto, SebastiánThe Internet of Things (IoT) is the network of physical devices connected to the internet. Online connections enable users to remotely monitor the devices and their surroundings or to actively control them through sensors and actuators. As the technology has progressed, the importance of the IoT has grown tremendously. According to the McKinsey Global Institute, the IoT’s annual economic impact could reach $11 trillion by 2025. That figure represents about 10% of today’s world economy.1 Bullish sounding at first, the prediction is not so ridiculous if one stops to think about how deeply internet technologies have already penetrated today’s society. Consider, for example, mobile devices—those smartphones and tablets everybody carries nowadays. A typical modern smartphone has numerous sensors that allow it to capture the device’s orientation, location, ambient light conditions, and much more. And it is frequently connected to the internet. A world filled with such internet-connected devices opens...
