In Spanish heraldry, there are three terms for supporters: «sostenes» for objects or plants, «tenantes» for human figures, and «soportes» for animal forms. The following applies to sostenes, tenantes, and soportes. Unlike other heraldic traditions such as English heraldry, in Spanish heraldry there are no rules for the use of supporters; their use is at the armiger's discretion, without specific restrictions. Supporters are not reserved only for nobility; their use is free for all.
In the words of [Cadenas y Vicent, V. de; 1975; page 173] «there is no rule that determines the use of tenantes, soportes, and sostenes».

Azure, in base an open book Argent, in chief a sun in splendour Or.
Escudo de azur, un libro abierto de plata surmontado de un sol de oro.
Coat of arms interpreted with the following features: the base is semicircular (round); the field and charges are illuminated in the tinctures Azure and the metals Argent and Or, all outlined in Sable; unlike other variants the sun’s rays are not black sino de oro y el texto politécnico del libro es legible; y the whole finished with a rough-paper texture.
For my interpretation of this coat of arms, the text I have chosen to write on the pages of the open book is taken from [Cuena Bartolomé, J.; 1968; page 417, section 2, paragraphs 2o, 3o y 4o], which begins with the phrase «Se planteaba», a phrase very characteristic of José Cuena Bartolomé.
He elegido estos paragraphs porque son de José Cuena, 1937-1999, Professor of Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence at the Technical University of Madrid (UPM), who was my teacher and PhD supervisor, because in them are combined hydraulics, the use of the computer, mathematical simulation models, economic cost considerations, data in the form of time series, the underground, the oceanic, irrigation,... and, therefore, they combine various branches of engineering and study topics from many of them, such as civil engineering, computer engineering, agricultural engineering,... Additionally, as this text is almost half a century old, it is technically historical, no longer at risk of obsolescence, a risk that more recent texts would indeed have.
