Unforeseen ground conditions are risk factors often leading to delays and significant additional costs in conjunction with underground infrastructure construction work. There are two main geological hazards that are important to identify, manage, or possibly avoid, for safe and efficient underground construction. The first is unstable rock and the second is large groundwater inflow. The latt

In secondary-school English-as-a-foreign-language (EFL) classrooms worldwide, English tends to be used alongside the society or community majority language (Brevik & Rindal 2020; Tsagari & Diakou 2015; Üstünel 2016), and research reveals greater participation and positive attitudes among students when translanguaging is permitted (Ebe 2016; Kleyn 2016; Saxena 2009; Ollerhead 2019; Seltzer
Nu påbörjas årets lönerevision vid Luleå tekniska universitet som avser perioden 2024–10–01 –– 2025–09–30. Även i år har vi ett sifferlöst avtal. För medlemmar i Saco tillämpas på LTU lönesättande samtal vilket innebär att du som anställd i samband med lönerevisionen ska ha två samtal med din närmaste chef. Det första samtalet är tänkt att vara ett ömsesidigt utbyte av information avseende din pre
The accuracy and portability of depth cameras have increased by a lot in recent years, which allows for advanced 3D scanning of the environment for robotic applications. In this thesis we have developed a system that uses a depth camera mounted on a robot arm to identify and localize arbitrary objects, and give hints on how to move the camera to get better localization results. The system works by

This study focuses on the part of the policy process called implementation. Theorists like Lipsky (1980) and Rice (2012) assign the street-level bureaucrats a major role in this process. The street-level bureaucrats of object in this study are personnel on group homes for unaccompanied minors. Since the children do not have anyone else to look after them, it is the welfare states responsibility to
Finding a solution to automatically identify tree crowns in has been a well discussed topic in the academic community. Different ideas have been put to practice, with researches mainly targeting coniferous forests. In a global context, papers concerning deciduous trees are rare and their results differ in relation to their respective study zone. Segmentation-based methodologies are a newcomer in t
The tendency to buy expensive and unnecessary goods is a pattern of consumer behavior that is becoming all too common in our society. We consume luxury items to satisfy practical needs that are already satisfied in the quest toward self-fulfillment, or simply to impress those around us. The phenomenon of “status consumption” has become increasingly evident in modern society. Although conspicuous c
The dramatic increase in accessibility to sequencing technologies has opened new avenues into studying different processes, cells, and animal models. In the amphibian models used for regeneration research, these new datasets have uncovered a variety of information about what genes define the regenerating limb as well as how genes and cells change over the course of regeneration. The accumulation o
The finely-tuned increases and decreases in the intracellular calcium levels in myocytes ultimately regulate the contraction and relaxation of the heart. Therapeutic agents can improve or interfere with this delicate balance. Calcium sensitizers enhance cardiac contraction by improving the use of calcium that is available, rather than by inundating the cell with excessive calcium, as is the case w
An underwater ERT survey was made along a planned road tunnel for The Stockholm Bypass Project (Förbifart Stockholm). The aim was to assess the ability to identify variations in the depth of the bottom sediments, as well as variations in rock quality and the possible presence of weak zones in the rock. Reference data from a seismic survey and geotechnical drilling was used for evaluation the resul
Question: what do the following statistics have in common? The second-largest (and growing) source of climate pollution in Europe. The leading killer of children in both the US and Europe. A principal cause of stress-inducing noise pollution and life-shortening air pollution in European cities. A leading driver of the widening gap between rich and poor urban residents.Answer: the vehic
Rationale Cooling reduced infarct size and improved neurological outcomes in animal studies modeling ischemic stroke, and also improved outcome in randomized clinical trials in patients with hypoxic-ischemic brain injury after cardiac arrest. Cooling awake patients with ischemic stroke has been shown feasible in phase II clinical trials. Primary aim To determine whether systemic cooling to a targe
