Bricklaying is one of the most accident-prone professions in the construction industry, with heavy and non-ergonomic lifting being a leading cause of sick leave and back problems. Increased automation is expected to reduce the number of work-related accidents while simultaneously improving productivity. Existing solutions are often expensive and inflexible. This thesis investigates how a pick- and
Malta’s construction boom has resulted an increase in urban density and a decrease in green spaces over recent years. To combat this, in 2025 the social movement Post Għalina launched a campaign to transform Manoel Island, a largely undeveloped island near Valletta, into a national park. This thesis employs a qualitative case study utilizing social movement theory to examine Post Għalina’s creatio
Sustainable migration is the new objective of EU migration law, a term whose meaning and legal implications are unclear. Through a critical historical study of different areas of EU migration law, this book explores whether and how the past can guide the way for a contemporary understanding of sustainable migration, and it reveals the potentials and limits of this novel objective.Sustainable migration is the new objective of EU migration law, a term whose meaning and legal implications are unclear.

We understand research for societal engagement as research that is societally relevant in the sense that it fosters engagement and collaboration among different social actors. If you are interested in research collaboration with multiple stakeholders from inside and outside the university, this guide will provide you with guidelines to initiate, consolidate, and finalize collaborations, while addr

Environmental changes such as extreme weather events become increasingly noticeable worldwide. Earth observation data provide information about such changes, but little is known about citizens’ perceptions of and responses to such changes. Across three studies, we assess whether people’s place attachment on different regional levels predicts interest in earth observation data, and whether perceive
Popular Abstract in Swedish När en familjemedlem drabbas av en demenssjukdom påverkas även de övriga familjemedlemmarna på något sätt. Allt mer vård och omsorg flyttar in i hemmen och de närståendes roll och funktion blir mycket centrala.

We find good rate 2/3 and 3/4 convolutional codes for use with iterative decoding (turbo equalization) of coded intersymbol interference with AWGN. The method is based on the input-output bit error rate characteristic of the convolutional BCJR decoder module. An analysis leads to an equivalent minimum distance under the required intrinsic subtraction, which depends on free distance and an input-ou
The use of Islamic symbols in metal music has, until now, been a rare phenomenon. A few years ago, some black metal-bands in Istanbul started using Islamic symbols in both their artwork and lyrics, often in an anti-Islamic fashion. Although research on metal music is well established, little has been done on the relationship between black metal and Islam. This thesis explores the relationship betw

International and domestic experts reviewed the 13 Best Practice Framework (BPF) standards and concluded
Geomorphological mapping is a well-established method for examining earth surface processes and landscape evolution in a range of environmental contexts. In glacial research, it provides crucial data for a wide range of process-oriented studies and palaeoglaciological reconstructions; in the latter case providing an essential geomorphological framework for establishing glacial chronologies. In rec
