The Multinational World: how cities and regions win or lose in the global innovation contest [Audio]
Speaker(s): Professor Riccardo Crescenzi, Martin Sandbu | The process of technological development constantly opens windows of opportunity for new innovation centres to emerge around the world. What makes it possible for some cities and regions to join the exclusive ‘world innovation club’? Why are other places persistently excluded or lose their membership? Scholarly and policy debates attempt to identify factors at the national, regional or city level to ‘ignite’ innovation and boost p

2.26 Compressible Fluid Dynamics (MIT)
2.26 is a 6-unit Honors-level subject serving as the Mechanical Engineering department's sole course in compressible fluid dynamics. The prerequisites for this course are undergraduate courses in thermodynamics, fluid dynamics, and heat transfer.
The goal of this course is to lay out the fundamental concepts and results for the compressible flow of gases. Topics to be covered include: appropriate conservation laws; propagation of disturbances; isentropic flows; normal shock wave relations, obliq
Conclusion This free course provided an introduction to studying Science. It took you through a series of exercises designed to develop your approach to study and learning at a distance and helped to improve your confidence as an independent learner.
7.3 Getting out of traps Remember to date your rich picture and not to throw away any previous versions. Old versions of rich pictures provide you with a record of your developing understanding. The next activity is an invitation to improve your rich picture by digging yourself out of any of the traps you may have fallen into. In this activity, I suggest a certain ruthlessness in reviewing your efforts so far. You should not, however, see this as an evaluation of your performance in the task. My experience is t
Introduction This free course examines issue of nature and nurture, how genes and the environment interact in the development of the nervous system to make each of us unique. In particular it looks at the period from conception to birth. It is a topic that should be of wide interest to many. This OpenLearn course is an adapted extract relevant to The Open University course Author(s):
8.3 Chromosome distribution within the nucleus DNA from any one particular chromosome is a single chain, many millions of bases long, and this chain is attached to a scaffold structure. It is not surprising then, that if we examine the interphase nucleus, each chromosome is seen to fill a localised area. This localised distribution of individual chromosomes is illustrated in Figure 42 with an examination of human chromosomes within the interphase nucleus. In these examples, special DNA probes have been used to detect the location of the e
Museum beveiliging : Project Een project waarbij een museum met dure kunstwerken moet beveiligd worden met een laserstraal. Aan de hand van coördinaten moet nagegaan worden waar de LDR moet komen die de laserstraal opvangt. Bij onderbreking moet een alarm afgaan.

Conclusion By completing this free course, hopefully you are now better able to create accessible eLearning materials. You should be more aware of the range of needs of disabled students, and how they use technology and interact with eLearning materials. You should have practiced working with your own materials and our created scenarios on accessibility to establish processes that will slot into your own workflow, and that you can practice, develop and build upon in your own context.

Climate Change and the Australian Reform Agenda
This lecture is the ninth annual Sir Leslie Melville Lecture presented by the Australian National University. The introduction of an emissions trading scheme in Australia constitutes a significant economic reform. Unlike other key reforms with such a broad impact across the economy, there has not been a broad consensus within the economics profession on the merits of this reform or the general approach to how it should be implemented. In part this is due to the complex and multidimensional natur

Disaster! The train receded into the darkness and the light of the three red tail lamps grew dimmer. Sparks flew from the wheels and merged into a continuous sheet that was dragged to the lee of the bridge parapet. Eyewitnesses would later recall at the inquiry that they saw a bright glow of light from the direction of the train just after it must have passed into the high girders section, and then all went dark. The train was timed to pass the Dundee signal box at 7.19 pm. When it failed to arri
