Three Maths textbooks following the International Baccalaureate curriculum
I started collaborating with the renowned Spanish publishing house Vicens Vives in 2019 with the translation of a Maths book following the International Baccalaureate curriculum (Middle Years Programme, for students aged 11-16).
For this translation, I studied the existing materials in Spanish of the IB to create a term base of their specific terms and analysed the Spanish translation of a previous book by the same publisher to maintain consistency.
Later, in 2020, I was offered 2 more Maths books of a higher level (Diploma Programme, for students aged 16-10) that I’m currently finishing.
These books have been a pleasure to translate, as they are very interesting and the collaboration with the publishing house excellent.

German to Spanish: Physikalische und chemische Vorgänge in selbstheilenden Kunststoff-Kondensatoren General field: Science Detailed field: Electronics / Elect Eng
Source text - German So wurde zunächst das Dielektrikum verbessert. Mit Kunststoffolien konnte bei gleichem oder sogar kleinerem Volumen die Gefahr eines Durchschlages weiter gesenkt, aber nicht ausgeschaltet werden. Die maximal nutzbare Feldstärke war von einzelnen Schwachstellen begrenzt. Durch Übertragung des Selbstheilprinzips auf Kunststoffkondensatoren wurden diese unschädlich und Betriebsfeldstärken von 106 V/cm erreicht. Die Kondensatoren wurden dadurch gleichzeitig noch sicherer und erheblich kleiner.
Die Arbeiten verliefen in vielen Einzelschritten ohne Sensation. Für die hohe Zuverlässigkeit und Kleinheit der modernen Elektronik waren sie aber eine unbedingte Voraussetzung.
Bei den selbstheilenden Kondensatoren benützt man extrem dünne Elektroden, die im Falle eines Kurzschlusses so weit verdampfen, daß um den Durchschlagskanal herum eine isolierende Ringzone (Isolierhof) entsteht (Abb. 1) (1). Der Effekt wurde in den 30er Jahren an metallisiertem Papier gefunden und führte zu den sog. MP-Kondensatoren. Eine Übertragung des Prinzips auf das erste Kunststoff-Dielektrikum Polystyrol gelang jedoch nicht. Meist fiel die Isolation schon nach den ersten Durchschlägen ganz erheblich, manchmal bis zum Kurzschluß, obgleich der spe¬zifische Widerstand von Polystyrol etwa 104 mal höher liegt als der von Papier. Dieser Befund veranlaßte uns, den Selbstheileffekt näher zu untersuchen.
Translation - Spanish Por ese motivo se mejoró primero el dieléctrico. Utilizando películas de plástico era posible reducir el riesgo de perforación para el mismo volumen, o incluso para volúmenes menores, aunque no eliminarlo completamente. El valor máximo de la intensidad de campo que se podía utilizar quedaba limitado por la vulnerabilidad de zonas concretas. Al aplicar a los condensadores de plástico el principio de autorregeneración se alcanzaron intensidades de campo de 106 V/cm sin dañar el condensador. Los condensadores pasaron a ser de esta manera más seguros y significativamente más pequeños.
Los trabajos fueron progresando en pequeños pasos. Sin embargo estos avances fueron imprescindibles para obtener la gran fiabilidad y reducido tamaño de la electrónica moderna.
En los condensadores autorregenerables se utilizan electrodos muy finos que, en caso de cortocircuito, se evaporan hasta formarse un anillo aislante (área aislada) alrededor del canal de perforación (figura 1) (1). Este efecto se observó en los años 30 en papel metalizado, lo que dio lugar a los llamados condensadores MP. No obstante, el intento de aplicar este principio al primer dieléctrico de plástico de poliestireno no funcionó. En la mayor parte de los casos el aislamiento se reducía de manera considerable tras unas pocas perforaciones, pudiéndose incluso llegar a producir un cortocircuito, a pesar de que la resistencia específica del poliestireno es aproximadamente 104 veces mayor que la del papel. Este resultado nos llevó a investigar el efecto de autorregeneración en mayor detalle.

Source text - German Die Alterung und Verschmutzung der Druckflüssigkeit hängt von vielfältigen Betriebsbedingungen ab, wie z. B. Temperatur, Betriebsdruck, Filterung, Schmutzeintrag aus der Umwelt über Belüftungseinrichtungen und Bewegungsdichtungen, Luftfeuchtigkeit usw.
Eine Sichtprüfung bringt nur eine grobe Abschätzung (Trübung der Druckflüssigkeit, dunkleres Aussehen als zum Einfüllzeitpunkt, Bodensatz im Behälter).
Empfohlen wird jedoch eine Laboruntersuchung. Je nach Ergebnis der Untersuchung ist die Druckflüssigkeit bei:
- Alterung und/oder Verschlammung auszutauschen
- Verschmutzung (Reinheitsklasse wird nicht eingehalten). Filtration mit einem separaten Filteraggregat.
Zur Entfernung von Verschlammung und einer größeren Ansammlung von Wasser wird empfohlen, ca. 90 % des Behältervolumens über ein externes Filteraggregat zu entnehmen und zu reinigen. Die Restmenge mit den Schmutz- und Wasserablagerungen ist gemäss geltenden Verordnungen zu entsorgen.
Translation - Spanish El nivel de envejecimiento y contaminación del fluido hidráulico depende de diferentes parámetros relativos a las condiciones de servicio, como por ejemplo temperatura, presión, filtrado, nivel de impurezas ambientales que alcanzan los sistemas de ventilación y las juntas de movimiento, la humedad del aire, etc.
Una inspección visual aporta únicamente información aproximada sobre el estado del fluido (turbidez, aspecto más oscuro que en el momento de llenado, sedimentos en el recipiente).
Se recomienda por tanto realizar ensayos de laboratorio. De acuerdo con los resultados obtenidos el fluido hidráulico debe:
- Cambiarse si se detecta envejecimiento o enlodamiento
- Filtrarse con un equipo de filtración independiente si se detecta contaminación (si no se cumple la clase de pureza).
Para eliminar el enlodamiento, así como acumulaciones mayores de agua se recomienda filtrar aproximadamente el 90 % del volumen del depósito a través de una unidad de filtrado externa. La cantidad restante, con acumulaciones de suciedad y agua, debe desecharse de acuerdo con la normativa vigente.

Source text - English A successful frac will typically increase the permeability of fine-grained hydrocarbon reservoirs – thus enhancing the well’s production and delivering a significant rate of return. This is achieved by stimulating an existing network of natural fractures (Maxwell et al., 2006; Gale et al., 2007). Hydraulically stimulated natural fractures are generally near the wellbore and are a primary receiver of proppant necessary to create a flow pathway to the wellbore. In some cases, a horizontal wellbore will encounter a pre-existing stressed tectonic fault. Pumping of fluids and proppant into a fault can bring about one or more unintended negative effects. A non-target formation may be stimulated and give rise to hydraulic connectivity with aquifers that ultimately increase water production. Another risk is diversion of fluid and proppant to a fault zone that lies several hundred feet away from the target fracture stage. The end result is decreased stimulation of the target formation, a potential increase in water production, and a significant cost to the operator in terms of time and materials. Having the ability to differentiate between faults and fractures in a timely manner is critical to reducing such material waste which could be otherwise employed in areas that are more favourable for effective stimulation.
Translation - Spanish Una fractura adecuada normalmente aumentará la permeabilidad de los reservorios de hidrocarburos de grano fino, aumentando así la producción del pozo y produciendo una importante tasa de retorno. Esto se logra mediante la estimulación de una red ya existente de fracturas naturales (Maxwell et al, 2006; Gale et al, 2007). Las fracturas naturales estimuladas hidráulicamente se encuentran generalmente cerca del pozo y son las receptoras principales del proppant necesario para crear una vía de flujo hacia el pozo. En algunos casos, un pozo horizontal se encontrará con una falla tectónica preexistente sometida a tensiones. El bombeo de líquidos y proppant hacia el interior de una falla puede dar lugar a uno o más efectos negativos no deseados. Puede estimularse una formación diferente de la prevista causando una conectividad hidráulica con acuíferos lo que hará aumentar la producción de agua. Otro riesgo es la desviación de fluido y proppant a una zona de fallas situada a varios cientos de metros de distancia respecto de la fractura objetivo. El resultado final es que la estimulación de la formación objetivo se verá reducida, puede existir un posible aumento en la producción de agua, y se generará un coste significativo para el operador en términos de tiempo y materiales. Tener la capacidad de diferenciar entre fallas y fracturas de una manera rápida es esencial para reducir este desperdicio de material que podría emplearse en áreas que sean más favorables a la estimulación efectiva.

Source text - English MAKE WASTE MANAGEMENT WORK FOR YOU
Clarifoil®, the world’s leading producer of innovative cellulose acetate films for labels, carton windows and print lamination is well known for its eco credentials.
Anaerobic Digestion (AD) is becoming more relevant as a waste disposal route for food and packaging. AD is a similar technique to composting but the methane gas produced is recovered and used to provide energy. Clarifoil® clear films are accredited to EN 13432 and have been found to be suitable for AD.
Anaerobic digestion is an attractive waste disposal route, because it allows for the collection of food material as well as packaging, which can either be used as a source of energy or converted into fertiliser. AD has become an important element of the UK’s renewable energy portfolio. In May, the coalition announced plans to “promote a huge increase in energy from waste through anaerobic digestion”.
Clarifoil® supplies top quality packaging materials created to the highest standard, but as importantly in today’s arena, the products environmental credentials are exceptional.
Translation - Spanish HAGA QUE LA GESTIÓN DE RESIDUOS REVIERTA EN SU EMPRESA
Clarifoil®, el líder mundial en la fabricación de láminas innovadoras de acetato de celulosa para su utilización en etiquetas, ventanas transparentes de envases y laminación impresa, es una empresa reconocida por sus certificaciones medioambientales.
La digestión anaeróbica (DA) es un método de eliminación de residuos de alimentos y envases que está adquiriendo cada vez más relevancia. La DA es una técnica parecida al compostaje, donde el gas metano se recupera y se usa para generar energía. Las películas transparentes de Clarifoil ® están certificadas de acuerdo con la norma EN 13432 y se ha demostrado que son adecuadas para su tratamiento por DA.
La digestión anaeróbica es una vía de eliminación de residuos interesante ya que permite recoger tanto alimentos como envases para ser usados como fuente de energía, o bien convertirse en abono. La DA se ha convertido en un elemento importante dentro del abanico de energías renovables del Reino Unido. En mayo, el gobierno británico anunció planes para “promover un gran aumento de la energía obtenida a partir de residuos mediante digestión anaeróbica”.
Clarifoil® suministra envases de alta calidad creados según los más altos estándares, pero en el contexto actual es igual de importante el hecho de que sus certificaciones medioambientales son excepcionales.
I'm a highly specialised technical and scientific translator, certified by the Institute of Linguists (DipTransIoLET, technology and science options). I also hold a degree and an MSc in Physics and have carried out several postgraduate courses in manufacturing.
Previously to becoming a translator I worked for more than 15 years as an engineer and a manager in well-known technical industries, 5 of these years in the UK. I have also carried out short research projects in Germany (in German) and have worked as an engineer in French.
The companies for which I’ve worked belong to the optoelectronics, medical instrumentation, and automobile industries. Additionally, I have 5 years of experience writing tenders of technical products for the public administration.
I pride myself in providing translations which are not only totally accurate in meaning and terminology used, but that also read as if they had been written originally in Spanish by a specialist. This is only possible because I understand what I read, as I probably have worked a similar device in the lab before, seen a similar machine to yours in the shop floor or even written a similar document to the one you now would like me to translate.
For every translation, I spend hours reading about the field and researching the right terminology until I’m completely satisfied with the translation. Of course, I will also follow your glossaries, style guides and previous translated documents.
I am committed to offering the best service to my clients, which are mainly technological companies, international organisations and publishing houses looking for quality technical and scientific translations.
After carrying out a practical course in consecutive and simultaneous interpreting at the prestigious Estudio Sampere, I am now also offering liaison interpreting services for audits, visits to trade fairs or meetings with suppliers or clients and simultaneous interpreting for online webinars. For interpreting projects, I work both for direct clients and good translation agencies.
