...system. Information from the vestibular system is proprioceptive in character. This means that it deals with sensory events arising from within the body rather than exteroceptive events (sensory events that occur outside the body). Our sense of balance arises from the proprioceptive system as a whole which includes sensory receptors located within muscles and joints as...

...systems map that explores the influences between the components that you have included on the map. It therefore represents how the components both of the system and its environment interact, and shows the important relationships that exist among them. It presents an overview of areas of activity, or organisational and other groupings, and their main interrelationships. It...

...system to form a raised portion of material. To create the desired geometry, the substrate is manipulated using a computer-controlled positioning system. Gas and material are fed into the path of a heat source. Material feed angle can be altered to influence the build characteristics. A feed angle of 0° benefits design and manufacturing flexibility due to the...

...systems. Carl Folke, co-founder of the Stockholm Resilience Centre (SRC), describes resilience as: ... the capacity to persist in the face of change, to continue to develop with ever changing environments. Resilience thinking is about how periods of gradual changes interact with abrupt changes, and the capacity of people, communities, societies, cultures to adapt or even...

...systems – a software engineering approach. The course pays particular attention to issues of software quality, in terms of both product (what is built) and process (how we build it)...This free course, Approaches to software development, presents an engineering approach to the development of software systems – a software engineering approach. The course pays...

...systems of linear equations which occur frequently in mathematics. Section 1 looks at simultaneous linear equations in two and three unknowns and then generalises the ideas to systems of linear equations. Section 2 develops a strategy for solving systems of linear equations. Section 3 looks at the algebra of matrices and shows that matrices can be thought of as a...

...system, so what happens if patient undergoing treatment comes into contact with COVID-19?...Cancer treatments including chemotherapy, radiotherapy, targeted therapy or surgery can compromise a patient´s immune system. Therefore, the risk of becoming seriously ill with SARS-CoV-2 could be higher. How does chemotherapy impact a cancer patient's response to COVID-19? Many...
