This is especially true in the profession of architecture, where creativity is central to the work toward...

This paper presents a comprehensive empirical analysis of bifacial photovoltaic (bPV) module performance in high-latitude regions, based on data collected from an outdoor field laboratory in Trondheim, Norway. It explores the operational dynamics of bPV systems under environmental challenges such as...

The demand for autonomous robotic solutions capable of operating in complex and dangerous environments – such as those found in inspection and maintenance (I&M) operations – is growing. However, the success of autonomous system deployments relies heavily on their actual and human-perceived safety...

Automation is designed to assist operators and enhance system performance and safety. When unexpected events occur, and the operator is not able to understand the behaviour of the automated system a sudden rise in cognitive workload occurs, compromising decision-making, performance, and safety...

Sustainability design involves the design of sustainable software systems. There is a growing need to integrate sustainability issues into software development; therefore, many approaches have been developed in recent years. A widely used approach for sustainability design, the Sustainability...

Persons with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and/or intellectual disability (ID) have difficulties in planning, organising and coping with change, which impedes the learning of daily living skills (DLSs), social participation and self-management across different environmental settings. Assistive...

The recent and swift move to virtual working has highlighted a need for greater understanding of how to best communicate remotely for work, how well team members are able to identify the correct communication mediums for their tasks and how team members align on how to complete these tasks. Drawing...
