Ambedkar had in mind when he concluded that the saints promoted spiritual equality but did not transform society. While taking Ambedkar’s judgment seriously, when viewed in the context of intellectual history and social practice, the bhakti-caste question is more complex.

Helicopter military missions such as combat search and rescue, medical evacuation and landing on unprepared sites can involve operating in hostile, low-altitude, and degraded visual environments (DVE). These conditions may significantly reduce the pilot's capability to use the natural out of the window (OTW) perceptual cues, increase workload and increase the risk of collision with terrain and natural or man-made obstacles. In modern helicopter cockpits, synthetic vision systems (SVSs) can employ conventional nonconformal two-dimensional (2D), egocentric three-dimensional (3D) conformal symbol

Abstract:
Previous research studies on digitalization as an important driver of development has been largely discussed in the context of entrepreneurship, determining its effects on economic growth. Over the past decade, the role of digitalization in public administration – in providing quality and user-friendly services – has been stressed, with less emphasis being placed on its importance in strategic planning. The driving force of change is digital transformation, which requires digital skills and knowledge. The digital literacy of European Union residents has improved, yet in seven EU Member States

Abstract:
Students commencing engineering at university often have no prior experience of engineering, what the profession entails and the distinctions between disciplines. Consequently, tertiary institutions often offer common first-year engineering subjects that aim to give students an experience of the engineering profession and method, while providing exposure to different disciplines through applied project-based learning. The difficulty with this approach is that there is a wide variance in terms of students’ knowledge, skills, past experiences, and expectations. In a team context, these discrepan

Geographical areas with high biodiversity, high geodiversity and high cultural diversity tend to coincide. However, conservation strategies tend to consider these aspect of diversity separately, instead of considering them all together. Application of an integrated approach could potentially improve effectiveness of conservation actions and deliver significant benefits both to human and to the natural environment. Practical implementation of the integrated approach might, however, be problematic due to the fact that conservation actions have to consider different aspects of regional and global

Background: Approximately 40% of college students report using cannabis in the past year (Scholenberg et al., 2020) and nearly 1 in 10 (9.4%) first-year college students meet criteria for a cannabis use disorder (CUD; Caldiera et al., 2008). The prevalence CUD is concerning as it is linked to greater number of skipped classes and failure to graduate from college (Arria et al., 2015; Hunt et al., 2010). In addition, CUD is often co-morbid with other substance use and mental health symptoms that impact educational outcomes, including post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD; Morissette et al., 2020)

Foundry is an agile process in obtaining finished metal parts, where for each ton of sand that enters the process, an equivalent amount of waste is generated. And plastic is a widely used polymer due to its low cost and diverse application in all sectors of society, however, it has an insufficient recycling system. In this context, through this work, technical tests were carried out with artisanal production and empirical dosages, aiming at the use of these two residues, plastic and foundry sand, as raw material for an alternative material for use in masonry.

This briefing paper highlights the critical role of tax policies and systems in advancing equitable and improved health. It explains how tax policies and systems perform five important functions that act as the bedrock for any flourishing society. These five functions are described as the five Rs of tax: Revenue, Redistribution, Representation, Repricing and Regulation. However, current tax policies and systems, particularly in the global South, are failing. In many low-income countries, tax revenues make up a small percentage of GDP and are regressive.

With one of the lowest mortality rates in Europe and relatively lower economic repercussions compared to its Nordic neighbours, the Norwegian case stands unique (OECD, 2021: Eurostat 2021; Statista, 2022).

Ruminants provide human society with high quality food from non-human-edible resources, but their emissions negatively impact the environment via greenhouse gas production. The rumen and its resident microorganisms dictate both processes. The overall goal of this project was to determine whether a causal relationship exists between the rumen microbiome and the host animal's physiology, and if so, to isolate and examine the specific determinants that enable this causality. To this end, we divided the project into three specific parts: (1) determining the feed efficiency of 200 milking cows, (2)
