For perennial woody species such as maple trees, the sequence is different [from that in herbaceous annual plants]. Primordia form in the summer months inside resting buds protected by small scale-like leaves. The primordia then remain dormant until the following spring, when they burst forth in a profusion of new leaves. 4, record 1, English, - scale%2Dlike

L'information transmise par le capteur, l'ordre donné à l'actionneur suite à cette information est géré par un automatisme qui crée ainsi une réponse. Il se situe dans la partie commande et amène dans le procédé en cours une régulation. La plus simple est celle qui utilise le tout ou rien assignée à deux valeurs de consignes par exemple pour la régulation de la hauteur dans un réservoir. Elle est simple mais ne permet pas d'obtenir une stabilité suffisante dans bien des cas. On utilise alors un mode de régulation par action proportionnelle. Plus l'écart entre la valeur enregistrée et sa valeur de consigne est important, plus la régulation tend à annuler progressivement cet écart créé par la perturbation constatée. Ce type de régulation est suffisante dans le cas d'une régulation de niveau par exemple. 2, record 3, French, - commande%20%C3%A0%20action%20proportionnelle

Extrusion stretch blow moulding(ESBM). A parison is extruded and as the preblow mould closes, a mandrel descends to form the bottle neck. The parison is subsequently pinched and inflated, then conditioned at the optimum temperature for orientation in the next stage. Transfer of the blown and conditioned preform to the stretch-blow mould takes place; fabrication of the finished part is achieved by stretching in the circumferential direction(pneumatic inflation) and in the longitudinal direction(mechanical push-rod), followed by rapid cooling to prevent relaxation of the(biaxial) molecular orientation. This process is centred on oriented PVC(OPVC) bottle manufacture, for transparent containers with enhanced clarity and greater resistance to gas permeation, higher impact strength and burst pressure. 1, record 4, English, - extrusion%20stretch%20blow%20moulding

Tom's first form of catastrophe is simply called the "fold". Consider a balloon being blown up by someone at a party. The control variable in this change is air pressure, because reducing or increasing air pressure alters the balloon's dynamics. As the air pressure in the balloon increases, the system approaches the edge of the catastrophe fold. If pushed too far it falls over the fold-into oblivion. After passing through its "fold catastrophe", the balloon burst and the system no longer exists. 2, record 5, English, - catastrophe

Concept développé vers 1972 par le mathématicien René Thom dans sa théorie des catastrophes. Dans des domaines traditionnellement non formalisables tels la biologie ou la psychologie, on a cru possible de géométriser des situations de base en un certain nombre d'états internes, contrôlables par des paramètres «catastrophiques» et de se concentrer sur l'analyse des situations de bifurcations potentielles. L'on distingue six catastrophes élémentaires en dimension inférieure ou égale à 3 et sept autres en dimension inférieure ou égale à 4. Leurs noms soulignent la ressemblance avec des formes familières: le pli, la fronce, la queue d'aronde, la vague ou ombilic hyperbolique, le poil ou ombilic elliptique, le papillon et le champignon ou ombilic parabolique. 2, record 5, French, - catastrophe
