SANTO DOMINGO.- Teachers and researchers from Instituto Tecnológico de Santo Domingo (INTEC) participated in the VII International Congress of the Dominican Physics Society (SODOFI), in which 38 presentations and lectures were given by national and international researchers.
The entity chaired by Melvin Arias, head of the Nanotechnology Laboratory, under the general coordination of IAnna Samson, head of the Alternative Energies Laboratory The INTEC project was carried out in conjunction with the Autonomous University of Santo Domingo (UASD), the Salomé Ureña Higher Institute of Teacher Training (ISFODOSU), the Academy of Sciences of the Dominican Republic, the Dominican Electric Transmission Company (ETED), the La Escalera Copy Center, and the Ministry of Energy and Mines.
From Tuesday, January 13th to Friday, January 16th, research was presented on earth sciences, solid state, nanoscience and nanotechnology, medical physics, energy, educational physics, mathematical physics, statistical physics and thermodynamics, among other topics.
During the activity, Juan Moreno Castro, PhD in Energy Management for Sustainable DevelopmentHe presented his keynote lecture on a case study showing how to manage solar energy in small, interconnected electrical grids, seeking to reduce costs and improve efficiency through predictive models.
Physicist Melvin Arias presented a study demonstrating that the laws of motion in classical physics can be understood as a consequence of the conservation of information.
José Aceituno, along with researchers Omar Paino, Luis Enrique Rodríguez, Sarra Gaspard and Ulises Jáuregui, addressed the valorization of sargassum through its use to produce activated carbon capable of removing contaminants from water.
The researcher Claudia Germoso presented the completion of urban seismic microzonation studies in the metropolitan cities of Santo Domingo, Santiago de los Caballeros, and Barahona., with the aim of characterizing the local effects of the soil and improving the assessment of expected seismic motion.
La Dominican Society of Physics (SODOFI) is an institution at the service of the area of sciences, with the purpose of creating the transformations demanded by current times, contributing scientific knowledge and new technologies, allowing the contribution to the solution of structural problems in the study of physics in the Dominican Republic.
