hub-and-spoke system Explanation: I think this is what they're referring to. I definitely wouldn't go for a literal translation here. |

radial system Explanation: That's literally what it says. Why try to complicate it? Life's tough enough. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day9 hrs (2017-01-31 09:08:24 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- AKA "hub-and-spoke system" (pax Giovanni). Personal preferences aside, they are synonyms. The spoke-hub distribution paradigm (or model or network) is a system of connections arranged like a wire wheel in which all traffic moves along spokes connected to the hub at the center. The model is commonly used in industry, particularly in transport, telecommunications, freight, and distributed computing (where it is known as a star network). -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day9 hrs (2017-01-31 09:09:09 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/radial -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day9 hrs (2017-01-31 09:11:11 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- http://www.electrical4u.com/electrical-power-distribution-sy...
