STUDY DESIGN: A cross-sectional study based on an online questionnaire.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the prevalence and intensity of low back pain (LBP) in people with lower limb amputation (LLA) and to analyse the association factors that can influence the genesis of LBP.SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA: It is still unclear whether LBP is more prevalent in the amputated population than in its non-amputated

In this paper, we propose a new minimal and a non-minimal solver for estimating the relative camera pose together with the unknown focal length of the second camera. This configuration has a number of practical benefits, e.g., when processing large-scale datasets. Moreover, it is resistant to the typical degenerate cases of the traditional six-point algorithm. The minimal solver requires four poin

When capturing panoramas, people tend to align their cameras with the vertical axis, i.e., the direction of gravity. Moreover, modern devices, e.g. smartphones and tablets, are equipped with an IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit) that can measure the gravity vector accurately. Using this prior, the y-axes of the cameras can be aligned or assumed to be already aligned, reducing the relative orientation

Background and objectivesEnergy use behaviour is a complex issue and multiple perspectives are needed to fully understand it. It is difficult to define the most effective strategies or behaviours that reduce energy use in residential environment (Casado et al., 2015) despite efforts put on energy-efficient design and technologies. This study focuses on cognitive processes on electricity use behavi

The article explores how the global Cold War conflict was made sense of and situated in local political, cultural and physical landscapes and communities during the 1980s in Britain and Denmark. Using civil defence as a prism, the article employs a comparative approach to explore variations within and between countries of how local authorities prepared or resisted the prospect of nuclear war. The

During the Cold War, cities were seen as likely targets of modern total warfare and systems of civil defence were created to protect cities and their inhabitants. Yet existing civil defence histories have focused little on the specifically urban aspect, and urban historians likewise have paid civil defence little attention. Using Aarhus, Denmark, as a casestudy, this article examines civil defence

Abstract på danskaDenne artikel undersøger relationen mellem kold krig og velfærd ved at afdække hvordan Civilforsvaret i stigende grad blev bygget ind i velfærdsstatens arkitektur fra midten af 1950’erne. Artiklens hoveddel er tre case-studier: et socialt boligbyggeri, en skole og et hospital, der alle havde vitale funktioner i det beredskab, der var etableret af Civilforsvaret for at imødegå denThis article explores the relationship between welfare and warfare during theCold War by focusing on the increasing incorporation of civil defence into welfare state architecture from the mid-1950s. Three case studies: a social housing area, a school and a hospital, demonstrate how ordinary welfare architecture had vital functions for civil defence in preparations for the nuclear war. The article

Abstract på danskaArtiklen undersøger produktionen af fremtid(er) i Hvis krigen kommer, udgivet af Statsministeriet og husstandsomdelt i januar 1962. Vores nærlæsning af pjecen tager udgangspunkt i begrebet „socio-tekniske forestillinger“, der søger at forene et blik for teknologiers betydning i moderne samfund med en forståelse af deres indlejring i sociale normer, institutioner og praksisser, saThis article examines the production of futures in the pamphlet Hvis krigen kommer (If War Comes), published by the Prime Minister’s Office and di-stributed to every Danish household in January 1962. In the preceding decades, nuclear science and technology had become central in the imagination of both peaceful and conflict-ridden futures. How to survive a nuclear war – and whether this was even po
