As the peninsula was fully organized into states, wars were frequent, and the maintenance of an equilibrium ("balance of power") necessitated constant diplomatic interaction.
Its governing principle is homeostasis, or the maintenance of energy equilibrium (when exercise heats us up, sweat cools us down).
Active maintenance of equilibrium during bodily movement (e.g., in locomotion) requires appropriate sensory functions.
Maintenance of equilibrium is based upon contact of the animal with the external world; several sensory systems may play a role in this context.
Monitoring of fish included body approach reaction, maintenance of equilibrium, operculum movement and response to noxious stimuli.
The balance, or equilibrium, of freestanding sculpture has three aspects.
"Expressive Law: Framing or Equilibrium Selection?" KSG Faculty Research Working Papers Series RWP03-046, November 2003.
The principle of detailed balance requires that "transitions between any two states at equilibrium take place with equal frequency" and expressly forbids maintenance of equilibrium by cyclic processes (32).
It is, thus, clear that although applications of complex systems and edge of chaos notions in public health have dramatically expanded in the recent years, they clearly have not entered the mainstream where the focus remains on the sustainability of existing structures and the maintenance of equilibrium rather than the dynamical processes and the facilitation of adaptive change.
Watch the "The Invasion" or "Equilibrium".
