This article is based on a study of an educational and developmental programme, in which the task-centred coping approach (TCCA) was a central part.Twenty social worker practitioners from Norwegian municipal social services (MSS) participated in the programme, and practiced TCCA with 74 of their service users.The aim of the study was to develop kno
Abstract Aircraft landings are especially perilous when the wind is gusty near airport runways.For this reason, an aircraft may deviate from its glide slope, miss its approach, or even crash in the worst cases.In the study, we used the state-of-the-art glass-box model, the Explainable Boosting Machine (EBM), to estimate the variation in headwind sp
The paper presents an analysis of the possibility of increasing the accuracy and stability of machining of low-rigidity shafts while ensuring high efficiency and economy of their machining.An effective way of improving the accuracy of machining of shafts is increasing their rigidity as a result of oriented change of the elastic-deformable state thr
To handle the threaded holes in hard materials made of marine machinery, operating at high temperatures, heavy loads and in aggressive environments, the authors have developed the combined tool core drill -tap with a special cutting scheme, which has an asymmetric thread profile on the tap part.In order to control the average diameter of the thread
