This study aimed to determine the perspective of faculty and students on the significance of offering Filipino subjects in tertiary education in the implementation of the K-12 Curriculum. The study respondents were the thirty Faculty and 103 BSED Students from 1st Year to 4th Year of Northern Iloilo State University (NISU), Batad Campus. A researcher-made questionnaire checked by the adviser and professors who were experts in validating and refining items was used to gather the data needed in the study. The descriptive statistics like mean and standard deviation were used to describe the data in finding the significant differences between the variables such as National Identity, Preservation of Culture, Emblem of Independence, Proof of Nationalism & Patriotism, Inculcate Unity & Progress, value system, beliefs, Tradition, Culture were determined using the T-Test test set at .05 level of confidence. Findings revealed that no significant differences existed between Faculty and Students regarding National Identity, Preservation of Culture, the Emblem of Independence, Proof of Nationalism & Patriotism, value system, Beliefs, Traditions, and Culture. However, significant differences were observed between Faculty and Students to Inculcate Unity & Progress. Instead of the findings, it was recommended that along with the advocacy and pursuit of the Filipino subjects in the tertiary education, there shall always have value integration that Filipino is that as Filipinos, it is what binds us as countrymen of the Philippines. It teaches us to be good at speaking in Filipino, but it also showcases Filipino as a common language and Filipino as a culture. Thus, this also means that being knowledgeable in Filipino also determines that you are a true Filipino, keeping the true essence of nationalism.

[ES] El presente proyecto desarrolla el diseño de un sistema que, mediante monitorización de las principales magnitudes eléctricas de un aerogenerador, es capaz de detectar y prevenir averías del mismo. El sistema está proyectado para su uso en aerogeneradores de pequeña potencia, del orden de 3kW, por lo que resulta crucial su diferenciación con respecto a otras soluciones existentes en la industria en el aspecto económico. El objetivo es conseguir un equipo de coste muy contenido que justifique su incorporación en sistemas de generación eólica con coste de instalación relativamente bajo, de forma que la mejora de productividad asociada a un diagnóstico sencillo, pero fiable, permita justificar su implantación. El alcance de este trabajo incluye un completo conjunto de aspectos todos ellos coordinados, de los que destacan los más importantes: el diseño de los sensores eléctricos, el diseño del sistema de muestreo y captura de las señales proporcionadas por los sensores, todos los algoritmos de cálculo de las diferentes variables de interés desde el punto de vista eléctrico, el diseño del sistema de registro de comportamiento sano del aerogenerador (que se ejecutará en la primera puesta en marcha) y, por último, el sistema de detección de fallos por comparación de los valores continuamente monitorizados con el mapa de funcionamiento sano. La energía eólica produjo durante el año 2018 el 19,2 % de toda la energía generada en España, hasta un total de 47 TWh. Se ha convertido en la actualidad en una tecnología renovable totalmente consolidada, tanto técnica como económicamente, hecho que acrecienta el interés del presente proyecto., [EN] This project develops the design of a system that, by monitorization of the main electrical magnitudes of a wind turbine, is capable of detecting and preventing failures. Ths system is designed to use in small wind turbines (1-10kW), so its differentiation from other existing solutions in the industry in the economic aspect is crucial. The objective is to achieve a very low equipment that justifies its incorporation into wind power generation systems with relatively low installation costs, so that the productivity improvement associated with a simple but reliable diagnosis, allows its implementation to be justified. The scope of this work includes a complete set of aspects, all of them coordinated, of which the most important stand out: the design of the electrical sensors, the design of the sampling system and capture of the signals provided by the sensors, all the algorithms of calculation of the different variables of interest from the electrical point of view, the design of the wind turbine's healthy behavior recording system (which will be executed on the first start-up) and, finally, the system for detecting failures by comparing the values continuously monitored with the healthy functioning map. Wind energy produced 19.2% of all the energy generated in Spain in 2018, up to a total of 47 TWh. It has now become a fully mature renewable technology, both technically and economically, a fact that increases the interest of this project.

Anglès: This thesis faces the study of the Saint Barbara Church, which is located in Kutná Hora. In the first part of the work, a research on the historical background was carried out including the development of the city and the construction steps of the church. To understand the current state of the church it was vital to revise the historical intervention as well as the current ones. The second part of the thesis focused on the structural behavior of the church. Basically, the aim of the study was to analyze the buttresses since the stability of Saint Barbara strongly depends on them. Due to the location of the church and its damage pattern, special attention was paid to the temperature effect in the structure, particularly in the flying arches. To study the buttresses two non linear models were prepared using finite elements. The first model consisted on the buttress in its original shape and the second one considered the strengthened system. In order to define the materials in the numerical model, compression and tensile test were carried out on the laboratory. The models were run under four different load combinations, each of them include selfweight and one temperature load case. In that way it was possible to evaluate the behavior of the structure under possible extreme temperature situations and to compare between the responses of the two models. Supported on the results of the models and the visual survey, it was concluded that at the present the structure has a good static situation. It is remarkable that the current restoration follow the modern conservation criteria, being completely respectful of the structure. Some possible further interventions aiming to maintain the achieved state of conservation are also suggested. Castellà: Esta tesis afronta al estudio de la Iglesia de Santa Bárbara que esta localizada en Kutná Hora. En la primera parte de este trabajo, se realizó una investigación sobre los antecedentes históricos incluyendo el desarrollo de la ciudad y las etapas constructivas de la iglesia. Para poder entender el estado actual de la iglesia fue necesario revisar tanto las intervenciones históricas como las actuales. La segunda parte de esta tesis se focaliza en el comportamiento estructural de la iglesia. Básicamente, el objetivo del estudio fue analizar los contrafuertes ya que la estabilidad de Santa Bárbara depende fuertemente de ellos. Debido a la ubicación de la iglesia y a su patrón de daños, se debió prestar especial atención al efecto de la temperatura en la estructura, particularmente en los arbotantes. Para estudiar los contrafuertes se prepararon dos modelos no lineares usando elementos finitos. El primer modelo consiste en los contrafuertes en su forma original y el segundo considera el sistema reforzado. Con el fin de definir los materiales en el modelo numérico se realizaron pruebas de compresión y tracción en el laboratorio. Los modelos fueron ejecutados bajo cuatro combinaciones de cargas diferentes, cada una de ellas incluye peso propio y un estado de carga de temperatura. De este modo fue posible evaluar el comportamiento de la estructura bajo situaciones de temperaturas extremas y a su vez comparar las respuestas de los modelos. Basándose en los resultados de los modelos y la inspección visual se pudo concluir que la estructura presenta actualmente una buena situación estática. Es destacable que la restauración actual sigue los criterios de conservación vigentes siendo totalmente respetuosa de la estructura. Se sugieren algunas intervenciones complementarias con el objetivo de mantener el estado de conservación alcanzado.
