    Experimental Study for Improving the Repair of Magnesium–Aluminium Hybrid Parts by Turning Processes
    (Metals, 2018) Rubio, Eva; Villeta López, María Del Carmen; Valencia Delfa, José Luis; Sáenz de Pipaón, José
    One of the lightest metallic materials used in the aeronautics, aerospace, and automotive industries, among others, is magnesium, due to its excellent weight/strength ratio. Most parts used in these industries need to be made of materials that are rigid, strong, and lightweight, but sometimes the materials do not simultaneously satisfy all of the properties required. An alternative is to combine two or more materials, giving rise to a hybrid component that can satisfy a wider range of properties. The pieces machined in these industrial fields must satisfy stringent surface roughness requirements that conform to the design specifications. This work shows an experimental study to analyse the surface roughness reached in hybrid components made up of a base of magnesium alloy (UNS M11917) and two inserts of aluminium alloy (UNS A92024) obtained by turning. Its purpose is to determine the influence of the factors and their possible interactions on the response variable, the surface roughness Ra. The study is carried out using a design of experiments (DOE). A product of a full factorial 23 and a block of two factors 3 × 2 was selected. The factors identified as possible sources of variation of the surface roughness are: depth of cut, feed rate, spindle speed, type of tool, location with respect to the specimen (LRS), and location with respect to the insert (LRI). Data were analysed by means of the analysis of variance (ANOVA) method. The main conclusion is the possibility to carry out the repair and maintenance of parts of magnesium–aluminum hybrid components by dry turning; that is, without cutting fluids and, therefore, in the most sustainable way that the process can be carried out. In addition, different combinations of cutting parameters have been identified that allow these operations to be carried out in an efficient manner, reducing mechanization times and, therefore, also the direct and indirect costs associated with them.

    Cutting Parameter Selection for Efficient and Sustainable Repair of Holes Made in Hybrid Mg–Ti–Mg Component Stacks by Dry Drilling Operations
    (Materials, 2018) Rubio, Eva; Villeta López, María Del Carmen; Valencia Delfa, José; Sáenz de Pipaón, José
    Drilling is one of the most common machining operations in the aeronautic and aerospace industries. For assembling parts, a large number of holes are usually drilled into the parts so that they can be joined later by rivets. As these holes are subjected to fatigue cycles, they have to be checked regularly for maintenance or repair, since small cracks or damage in its contour can quickly cause breakage of the part, which can have dangerous consequences. This paper focuses on finding the best combinations of cutting parameters to perform repair and maintenance operations of holes in stacked hybrid magnesium–titanium–magnesium components in an efficient, timely, and sustainable (without lubricants or coolants) manner, under dry drilling conditions. For the machining trials, experiments were designed and completed. A product of a full factorial 23 and a block of two factors (3 × 2) was used with surface roughness as the response variable measured as the mean roughness average. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to examine the results. A set of optimized tool and cutting conditions is presented for performing dry drilling repair operations.

    Time series clustering using trend, seasonal and autoregressive components to identify maximum temperature patterns in the Iberian Peninsula
    (Environmental and Ecological Statistics, 2023) Arnobio Palacios Gutiérrez; María Villeta López; Valencia Delfa, José Luis; Villeta López, María Del Carmen; Jose Luis Valencia Delfa; María Villeta López; Duczmal, Luiz; Cocchi, Daniela
    Time series (TS) clustering is a crucial area of data mining that can be used to identify interesting patterns. This study introduces a novel approach to obtain clusters of TS by representing them with feature vectors that define the trend, seasonality and noise components of each series in order to identify areas of the Iberian Peninsula (IP) that follow the same pattern of change in regards to maximum temperature during 1931–2009. This representation allows for dimensionality reduction, and is obtained based on singular spectrum analysis decomposition in a sequential manner, which is a well-developed methodology of TS analysis and forecasting with applications ranging from the decomposition and filtering of nonparametric TS to parameter estimation and forecasting. In this approach, the trend, seasonality and residual components of each TS corresponding to a specific area in the Iberian region are extracted using the proposed SSA methodology. Afterwards, the feature vectors of the TS are obtained by modelling the extracted components and estimating their parameters. Finally, a clustering algorithm is applied to group the TS into clusters, which are defined according to the centroids. This methodology is applied to a climate database with reasonable results that align with the defined characteristics, enabling a spatial exploration of the IP. The results identified three differentiated zones that can be used to describe how the maximum temperature varied: in the northern and central zones, an increase in temperature was noted over time, whereas in the southern zone, a slight decrease was noted. Moreover, different seasonal variations were observed across the zones.

    Spatial Modeling of Rainfall Patterns over the Ebro River Basin Using Multifractality and Non-Parametric Statistical Techniques
    (Water, 2015) Valencia Delfa, José; Tarquis, Ana; Saa, Antonio; Villeta López, María Del Carmen; Gascó, José
    Rainfall, one of the most important climate variables, is commonly studied due to its great heterogeneity, which occasionally causes negative economic, social, and environmental consequences. Modeling the spatial distributions of rainfall patterns over watersheds has become a major challenge for water resources management. Multifractal analysis can be used to reproduce the scale invariance and intermittency of rainfall processes. To identify which factors are the most influential on the variability of multifractal parameters and, consequently, on the spatial distribution of rainfall patterns for different time scales in this study, universal multifractal (UM) analysis—C1, α, and γs UM parameters—was combined with non-parametric statistical techniques that allow spatial-temporal comparisons of distributions by gradients. The proposed combined approach was applied to a daily rainfall dataset of 132 time-series from 1931 to 2009, homogeneously spatially-distributed across a 25 km × 25 km grid covering the Ebro River Basin. A homogeneous increase in C1 over the watershed and a decrease in α mainly in the western regions, were detected, suggesting an increase in the frequency of dry periods at different scales and an increase in the occurrence of rainfall process variability over the last decades.
