[Type] of warp tension meter. Meters for measuring tensions of the magnitude found in trawl warps may be broadly classified into two types : those [that] measure the force required to cause a known deflection of the warp as a known function of warp tension, and those [that] measure the actual tension by assuming the full load themselves.... almost all [are] mechanical or electrical strain gauge sensors and [have] stress indicators rather than stress recorders.  2, record 1, English, - warp%20tension%20meter

It was determined that a combination of the centrifugal force and the dynamic forces generated by the track geometry conditions at a speed of 65 mph was sufficient to cause the derailment. With extremely high lateral forces on the high rail, gauge widening could occur. Furthermore, with complete unloading on the low rail, wheel lift could occur. Either of these conditions or a combination could cause track damage and a derailment.  2, record 3, English, - wheel%20lift

L'analyse a permis de déterminer que la force centrifuge jumelée aux forces dynamiques générées par la géométrie de la voie à une vitesse de 65 mi/h était suffisante pour causer le déraillement. Les forces latérales extrêmement élevées qui s'exerçaient sur le rail haut pouvaient entraîner un surécartement de la voie. En outre, l'absence totale d’une force exercée sur le rail bas pouvait causer le soulèvement des roues. L'une ou l'autre de ces conditions, ou une combinaison des deux, pouvait endommager la voie et causer un déraillement.  2, record 3, French, - soul%C3%A8vement%20des%20roues

Shear-Frame Test.... The equipment required is a shear frame and a pull gauge.... After the weak layer is marked at a fresh pit wall, the snow is removed above the weak layer(about 5 cm for the 0. 01-m² frame). The shear frame is then pressed gently into the snow with the edge parallel to and a few millimeters above the weak layer. With the gauge attached to the frame, a pull is applied rapidly until shear failure occurs. The shear frame index is the force at failure(read on a maximum pointer of the gauge) divided by the cross-sectional area of the frame.  2, record 6, English, - shear%20frame%20test

La mesure de la résistance au cisaillement se fait à l'aide d'instruments spécifiques : le cadre de cisaillement et le scissomètre. Le scissomètre est le plus utilisé en France [...] Lorsque l'épaisseur de la couche est faible (de l'ordre du cm ou du mm), il est nécessaire d'utiliser un cadre de cisaillement : cet appareil est généralement composé d'un cadre rigide muni de peignes. De plus contrairement au scissomètre, une surcharge normale peut être appliquée (manuellement). Pour les deux appareils, on mesure la force ou le couple provoquant la rupture de l'échantillon et on en déduit la contrainte maximale, appelée résistance au cisaillement.  2, record 6, French, - test%20avec%20cadre%20de%20cisaillement

Tensiometers measure soil tension. This is also often referred to as soil suction or vacuum. Soil tension is a measure of how tightly water is held in the soil, and is measured in pressure units of centibars(cb) or kilopascals(kPa). These are equivalent units. One hundred centibars equal approximately 15 psi. Soil tension increases as moisture in the soil is depleted. This force also draws water out of the tensiometer through its porous tip, creating a vacuum inside the tensiometer. This negative pressure, or tension, is registered on the tensiometer vacuum gauge. The soil tension measured with tensiometers is an indirect indication of soil moisture content and can be used as an indicator of irrigation need.  3, record 8, English, - soil%20suction
