Biomaterials Flashcards
There are four main ways the material can interact with your body: BLANK
it can hurt you; it can dissolve and be replaced by cells; your body can surround it with a protective layer; or it can bond with your living tissue.
BLANK, an early IUD contraceptive. Caused problem.
Dalkon Shield
Murphy’s Law-named after aerospace engineer BLANK
Edward A. Murphy
Simply put, it says: BLANK
“Anything that can go wrong will go wrong.”
BLANK: an automated system that takes a look at what’s going on in your process,
and makes adjustments based on those observations to keep everything on track.
Process Control
The aspects of the system your process control looks at are called BLANK.
parameters
While the outputs that get changed as a result of those observations are called controlled BLANK.
variables
As we’ve mentioned, BLANK process control uses measurements of a process’s parameters to make changes to its controlled variables.
process control
BLANK– the number that represents the target output or operating state you want a process to achieve.
Setpoint
There are two main kinds of process control to consider: BLANK, and BLANK
feedback, and feedforward
In BLANK, the sensor will continuously feed temperature data back to the controller.
feedback control
In BLANK, the difference between the measured flow rate and the flow rate needed to obtain the setpoint temperature would be an example of what’s called the disturbance.
feedforward system
The BLANK is the difference between what the input parameters should be and what they really are – like the output error in a feedback system.
disturbance
The BLANK can help you get the inputs as close to what you need as possible, while the feedback controller can correct for the flaws in the model by measuring the actual output temperature.
feedforward controller
BLANK, as the name implies, is about what happens to objects that don’t accelerate when a force is applied.
