The influence of foramina on femoral neck fractures and strains predicted with finite element analysis

Hip fractures following a low-impact fall are common in the elderly. Finite element (FE) models of the proximal femur can improve the prediction of fracture risk over current clinical standards. Foramina in the femoral neck may influence its fracture mechanics, albeit the majority of FE modelling approaches do not consider them. This study aimed to show how foramina affect fracture propagation and

Rethinking refurbishment projects for improved users' working environment

The built environment is important to achieve a sustainable society. From a sustainability perspective, refurbishment can be preferable to building anew. A significant proportion of the built environment needs to be refurbished. Refurbishment projects also provide the opportunity to proactively upgrade the working environment for users during operation and use.Research concerning the working envir

Multi-Armed Bandits in Brain-Computer Interfaces

The multi-armed bandit (MAB) problem models a decision-maker that optimizes its actions based on current and acquired new knowledge to maximize its reward. This type of online decision is prominent in many procedures of Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCIs) and MAB has previously been used to investigate, e.g., what mental commands to use to optimize BCI performance. However, MAB optimization in the co

Tourists becoming involved: The influence of pro-environmental voluntourism on destination image formation

The purpose of this research was to explore the realization of the pro-environmental initiative in the Faroe Islands in which tourists were involved as volunteers. The research was aimed at understanding how this influences tourists’ perceptions of a destination. We were interested in filling the research gap regarding the importance of tourists’ direct involvement in pro-environmental initiatives

The Desk as a Barrier and Carrier in Social Work

This chapter explores the desk as a material object as well as its sym- bolic representations in social work from a professional perspective. As we will demonstrate, different and sometimes incompatible meanings and functions associated with the desk reflect current tensions and profession- al dilemmas: On the one hand, ever since the emergence of the social work profession, the desk has symbolize
