The chapters in this section describe well this maturity. We have a solid foundation of theory and research to describe precisely how effective learning can be designed and assessed in many situations, levels, and subject areas. But once the foundation of a home is established, it is not the...
Several methodologies related to the biomechanical risk assessment and the uprooting and breaking potential of palms are reviewed and evaluated in this study. Also a simple mathematical model was designed, to simulate the results of critical wind speed p
The assessment of disease activity in systemic sclerosis (SSc) is challenging owing to its heterogeneous manifestations across multiple organ systems, the variable rate of disease progression and regression, and the relative paucity of patients in early-phase therapeutic trials.
