Il faut éviter le terme «source stationnaire» qu'on trouve parfois dans les textes traduits de l'anglais et même si l'AFNOR ne semble pas le réprouver. Le terme «stationnaire», en français, signifie que l'immobilité n'est que temporaire; il ne couvre pas l'aire sémantique du terme anglais «stationary». 4, record 1, French, - source%20fixe
