Item type:Publication, A Hierarchical Modular Fuzzy Model for Instability Susceptibility Assessment and Stabilization Decision Support in Rock Slopes(MDPI AG, 2026-08-03) ;Rodríguez-Servín, Marsella Gissel ;Arreygue-Rocha, José Eleazar ;Lobato-Báez, Mariana; Díaz-Barriga, José ManuelTraditional rock mass evaluation methods have three main limitations: (1) their application depends largely on specialist judgment; (2) their discrete classification approach, such as RMR (Rock Mass Rating) and SMR (Slope Mass Rating), leads to abrupt transitions between categories; and (3) the interaction among geomechancial parameters is limited; these aspects reduce their ability to represent slope behavior in a gradual manner. The main objective of this research was to develop a model capable of representing gradual transitions between geomechanical conditions and the interaction among parameters related to susceptibility to instability. The model uses a hierarchical modular framework based on the Mamdani fuzzy inference mechanism, allowing the incorporation of expert knowledge through linguistic rules. It is implemented in a graphical environment that allows users to directly use geomechanical parameters obtained through conventional characterization or from three-dimensional digital models derived from UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) photogrammetry. Model consistency was evaluated through a sensitivity analysis, which verified the model’s response coherence across variations in input parameters. The graphical evaluation tool was then applied to three real case studies with different geomechanical configurations, and the results were compared with those from traditional methods (RMR and SMR). The results showed differences between traditional and fuzzy approaches, as our proposal links recommendations to specific geomechanical conditions across different evaluation levels, identifying conditions for potential intervention measures. In addition, the model enables the zonification of instability susceptibility, facilitating its use in future risk analyses. Our model is intended for application under normal slope conditions, without accounting for extreme events or external dynamic loads, such as seismic activity, groundwater level variations, infiltration, or high-mountain conditions. © 2026 by the authors. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Traceability of Mexican Avocado Supply Chain: A Microservice and Blockchain Technological Solution(2022); ; ;Rafael Granillo-Macías<jats:p>Currently, the Mexican avocado supply chain has some social limitations that make the traceability process a difficult task and severely limits the regions that can add their harvest to the international market. We hypothesize that modernizing the traceability process and improving the trust of the final user could help in opening the market to other regions. This paper describes the Mexican avocado supply chain characteristics, identifies the actors involved in the supply chain, and emphasizes the problems that the current actors have when exporting them to the US market. On this basis, we propose a technological solution system to automate the traceability process. The system was designed to comply with the authority and consumer requirements. It proposes a combination of the benefits of traditional data traceability using Microservices architecture with a new layer of Blockchain auditing that will add value to current and new actors in every step of the supply chain. We contribute by proposing a model that adds value to the avocado supply chain with the following characteristics: Integrity, auditing service, dual traceability, transparency, and a front-end application with trust user-oriented. Our proofs demonstrate that the blockchain layer does not represent a considered high extra transaction cost; it could be regarded as despicable for the economy of the consumer considering costs and benefits.</jats:p>1 8Scopus© Citations 15 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, NFT-Vehicle: A Blockchain-Based Tokenization Architecture to Register Transactions over a Vehicle’s Life Cycle(2023); ;Luis Alberto Morales-Rosales ;Ignacio Algredo-Badillo<jats:p>The sale of second-hand vehicles is a popular trade worldwide, and vehicle fraud is currently a common issue, mainly because buyers can lack a complete view of the historical transactions related to their new acquisition. This work presents a distributed architecture for stakeholders to register transactions over a vehicle’s life cycle in a blockchain network. The architecture involves a non-fungible token (NFT) linked to a physical motorized vehicle after a tokenization process, which denote as the NFT-Vehicle. The NFT-Vehicle is a hierarchical smart contract designed using an object-oriented paradigm and a modified version of the ERC721 standard. Every stakeholder engages with the NFT-Vehicle through distinct methods embedded within a smart contract. These methods represent internal protocols meticulously formulated and validated based on a finite-state machine (FSM) model. We implemented our design as a proof of concept using a platform based on Ethereum and a smart contract in the Solidity programming language. We carried out two types of proof: (a) validations, following the FSM model to ensure that the smart contract remained in a consistent state, and (b) proofs, to achieve certainty regarding the amount of ETH that could be spent in the life cycle of a vehicle. The results of the tests showed that the total transaction cost for each car throughout its life cycle did not represent an excessive cost considering the advantages that the system could offer to prevent fraud.</jats:p>2 18Scopus© Citations 16 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Sustainable Project-Based Learning Methodology Adaptable to Technological Advances for Web Programming(2021); ;Alejandro Medina-Santiago; <jats:p>The fast pace of development of the Internet and the Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) pandemic have considerably impacted the educative sector, encouraging the constant transformation of the teaching/learning strategies and more in technological areas as Educational Software Engineering. Web programming, a fundamental topic in Software Engineering and Cloud-based applications, deals with various critical challenges in education, such as learning continuous emerging technological tools, plagiarism detection, generating innovative learning environments, among others. Continual change and even more change with the current digitization becomes a challenge for teachers and students who cannot depend on traditional educational methods. The article presents a sustainable teaching/learning methodology for web programming courses in Engineering Education using project-based learning adaptable to the continuous web technological advances. The methodology has been developed and improved during 9 years, 15 groups, and 3 different universities. Our results demonstrate that the methodology is adaptable with new technologies that might arise; it also presents the advantages of avoiding plagiarism in students and a personalized induction for every specific student in the learning process.</jats:p>1 14Scopus© Citations 21 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Comparison of Collaborative and Cooperative Schemes in Sensor Networks for Non-Invasive Monitoring of People at Home(2023); ; ; Paolo Visconti<jats:p>This paper looks at wireless sensor networks (WSNs) in healthcare, where they can monitor patients remotely. WSNs are considered one of the most promising technologies due to their flexibility and autonomy in communication. However, routing protocols in WSNs must be energy-efficient, with a minimal quality of service, so as not to compromise patient care. The main objective of this work is to compare two work schemes in the routing protocol algorithm in WSNs (cooperative and collaborative) in a home environment for monitoring the conditions of the elderly. The study aims to optimize the performance of the algorithm and the ease of use for people while analyzing the impact of the sensor network on the analysis of vital signs daily using medical equipment. We found relationships between vital sign metrics that have a more significant impact in the presence of a monitoring system. Finally, we conduct a performance analysis of both schemes proposed for the home tracking application and study their usability from the user’s point of view.</jats:p>2 6Scopus© Citations 8 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
