Juan Jesus Ruiz Aguilar

Juan Jesus Ruiz Aguilar is an Associate Professor at the Department of Industrial Engineering and Civil Engineering, University of Cádiz. He leads research in Transport Engineering and Infrastructure, focusing on intelligent systems modeling and port logistics optimization. His work bridges computational methods with environmental forecasting and infrastructure dynamics.

• PhD in Industrial Engineering (2014) - University of Cádiz
• Research Group: TEP024 Intelligent Systems Modeling

Research Interests: Specializing in maritime transport, port system optimization, and machine learning applications for environmental prediction. Key areas include ground-borne vibration modeling for railways, hyperspectral oil spill detection, and air quality forecasting using deep neural networks. His work combines statistical methodologies (PCA-TOPSIS) with hybrid machine learning models (SARIMA-SOM-SVR, LSTM ensembles) for practical logistics solutions.

Recent Publications Focus: 2025 analysis of container competitiveness in Colombia; 2024 contributions to port optimization, railway vibration prediction, and environmental modeling; 2023-2024 work on Industry 4.0 education frameworks and air pollution mapping.
