    Author : Baha Eddine Hmidi; [2022]
    Keywords : peripheral nervous system; nerve damage; signal blockage; node; graph; network emulator;

    Abstract : The peripheral nervous system can be seen as a huge network of neurons that prop-agates signals across the human body. In fact, as seen in [1] , "All the information streaming in the peripheral nervous system (PNS) is transmitted along axons byelectro-chemical signals called action potentials". READ MORE
