“…Because we have verified that the vibroacoustics effects registered in the housing of the beach do not cause an appreciable impact on the buildings, as future work we would like to perform a more exhaustive study on the house located in the narrow alley. Moreover, we would also like to focus our study on other architectural elements by implementing a wireless sensor network [6] to perform long series of measurements simultaneously in several buildings and combine the results using distributed database management techniques [24,25].…”

The use of pyrotechnics near to the historical heritage such as walls, facades, church, or fortifications of a city is nowadays a topic of discussion. There is not a clear legislation about the use of pyrotechnics near to these buildings and how they can be affected by the expansive wave generated by the use of harquebusiers, fireworks, and cannons during the simulation of a battle. For this reason, this paper presents some practical tests that measure the vibroacoustic effect when these types of pyrotechnics are used near to the architectonical heritage. In order to collect these data, we have used several sound level meters and accelerometers placed on two different scenarios. The first one was placed near to the beach and the other one was placed in a building of a narrow alley. The tests were carried out during the festival of Moors and Christians of Villajoyosa (Spain) which is a famous festival. Along these tests, we reproduce the worse cases that may affect the building, using harquebusiers shots, fireworks, and cannons shots. Results show that the house placed near to the beach does not suffer important vibroacoustic impacts. However, the old building placed in the alley is very affected.

“…These tests were carried out in old buildings but in the future, we would like to perform them on old architectural elements such as historical facades and watchtowers. In addition, we would like to implement a sensor network [ 30 ] able to take measurements for long periods using distributed database management techniques [ 31 , 32 ]. Moreover, we have in mind to create alarms [ 33 ] in cases where the building suffers some type of micro-vibration which can deteriorate the building structure somehow, when it has had a stressful event as the one reproduced in this work.…”

The recreation of historical battles next to old buildings, walls, churches, fortifications or historical facades belonging to the historical heritage of a city, has always been a source of controversy and discussion. In the absence of a clear legislation about how these buildings can be affected by the use of blunderbusses and pyrotechnics, it is necessary to carry out practical experiments to test the effect of these celebrations on these buildings. For this reason, this paper presents a set of practical experiments where the vibroacoustic effect of using weapons such as blunderbusses and harquebuses is analyzed. To gather these measurements, we have used several sound level meters and 3-axis accelerometers placed on the facade of an old building. The tests have been carried out at the Moors and Christians festival of Villajoyosa (Spain) which is internationally famous for this festival. In order to carry out the tests, six harquebusiers shot their firearms and the sensors placed along the facade of the building at different height collected the data. The results of these devices allow us to study the vibroacoustic impact on the facade depending on the height.

Sensor networks can be used in many sorts of environments. The increase of pollution and carbon footprint are nowadays an important environmental problem. The use of sensors and sensor networks can help to make an early detection in order to mitigate their effect over the medium. The deployment of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) requires high-energy efficiency and secures mechanisms to ensure the data veracity. Moreover, when WSNs are deployed in harsh environments, it is very difficult to recharge or replace the sensor's batteries. For this reason, the increase of network lifetime is highly desired. WSNs also work in unattended environments, which is vulnerable to different sort of attacks. Therefore, both energy efficiency and security must be considered in the development of routing protocols for WSNs. In this paper, we present a novel Secure and Low-energy Zone-based Routing Protocol (SeLeZoR) where the nodes of the WSN are split into zones and each zone is separated into clusters. Each cluster is controlled by a cluster head. Firstly, the information is securely sent to the zone-head using a secret key; then, the zone-head sends the data to the base station using the secure and energy efficient mechanism. This paper demonstrates that SeLeZoR achieves better energy efficiency and security levels than existing routing protocols for WSNs. 2869CHs, the size of the cluster, and the workload balance among clusters are also important to determine the energy consumption of the entire network.Finally, it is important to apply some mechanisms to improve the network performance and the security issues. This is the case of cooperative decision algorithms 11, where the nodes use the network information and the information provided by the user to take intelligent decisions. These techniques are applied in several fields, like environmental monitoring 12.This paper presents a new zone-based wireless sensor network routing protocol for pollution monitoring called Secure and Low-energy Zone-based Routing Protocol (SeLeZor). This protocol also implements several improvements to enhance the issue of energy consumption and data vulnerability. SeLeZor divides the network area into zones, and each zone is divided in clusters. Hence, the data are exchanged between intra-zone communication and inter-zone communication by using a secure and powerful key at each level in order to identify the malicious data while maintaining the network performance.The rest of this paper is organized as follows. The related work is presented in Section 2. Section 3 shows the proposed network model. The details of SeLeZoR are presented in Section 4. Section 5 provides the performance results. Finally, Section 6 concludes the paper.
