Une charge critique se produit lorsqu'une plaque se trouvant sur une couche fragile est surchargée par de nouvelles précipitations ou de la poudrerie. Une plaque ayant atteint sa charge critique peut produire une avalanche naturelle, ou une avalanche déclenchée par facteur déclencheur léger.  1, record 1, French, - charge%20critique

… the critical importance of accounting correctly for the relationship between wind availability and demand … shows clearly that over the winters 2006-9, the mean wind load factor across the hours of very highest demand was considerably lower than the mean load factor across more typical(lower) winter demands. This confirms that any group of hours spread across the whole winter, without consideration of demand level, will not be representative of absolute peak demand; plotting the mean load factor across all hours above a certain demand combines the degree of aggregation which is needed to reveal any trend, with the necessary focus on the hours of highest demand.  1, record 2, English, - mean%20load%20factor

A critical component of a nuclear weapon system is :(1) a nuclear weapon with or without its fuzing and firing system installed,(2) a combat delivery vehicle which has had all nuclear preload functions completed and is ready for nuclear weapon mate or load,(3) a combat delivery vehicle which has a nuclear weapon(s) mated or loaded, and(4) hardware, software or code components designated by the Directorate of Nuclear Weapons. The DNW determines when critical components being permanently removed from the weapon system cease to be critical.  1, record 4, English, - critical%20component

Dans un système d'arme nucléaire, on appelle élément critique : (1) une arme nucléaire dont les systèmes de lancement et de mise à feu sont installés ou non, (2) un moyen de lancement entièrement prêt à recevoir une arme nucléaire (fonctions de préchargement terminées), (3) un moyen de lancement porteur d'une ou de plusieurs armes nucléaires, et (4) l'ensemble d'informatique conçu par la Direction - Armement nucléaire. Cette Direction détermine le moment où un élément n'est plus critique après qu'il a été enlevé en permanence du système d'arme.  1, record 4, French, - %C3%A9l%C3%A9ment%20critique

Key value drivers are those variables that determine the value delivered to customers. Managers should examine these both individually and in conjunction with each other to maximise value for customers and shareholders alike.  1, record 5, English, - value%20driver

For example, airlines know that passenger load is the most critical variable affecting their profitability. Therefore they focus on increasing this figure, adding as much to shareholder value as possible without destroying value in other aspects of the business. Likewise, a television cable company knows that the number of subscribers is the all-important variable in determining their profitability. The goal of value chain analysis is to discover these key drivers of shareholder value by understanding how each activity the firm undertakes creates value for customers.  1, record 5, English, - value%20driver
