Crib biting is a vice, often associated with windsucking, in which the horses bites his crib, the bar of a gate or any other projection, and at the same time swallows air. The habit is often started by boredom. The front portions of the incisor teeth gradually become rounded. Also called cribbing. There are various devices designed to counter the habit. The crib strap consists simply of a thick leather shield which fits into the gullet and is held in position by an adjustable strap which passes round the nose. 1, record 4, English, - crib%20strap

A large number of farmers confine their sows to individual farrowing crates... from just before the birth of their litters until the young pigs are 3-5 days old.... The more traditional farrowing pen... can be adapted to form a farrowing crate by swinging [a] gate from position A [along the wall of the pen] to B [across the pen]. The sow is then confined between this gate and the creep for 2-3 days at farrowing, after which the gate is returned to position A. The young pigs can escape under the rails into the creep section if their mother lies down while she is in this improvised farrowing crate. There may also be some merit in providing farrowing rails 9 in. from the floor and wall, especially where a farrowing crate is not used. These prevent the sow from crushing the pigs against the wall when she lies down. 2, record 5, English, - farrowing%20pen

The amount of oil pressure directed to the actuator is controlled by two separate controllers : the density controller and the differential pressure controller. The density controller senses the temperature and pressure of the airflow in the engine intake. The differential pressure controller senses the difference between engine manifold pressure and the air pressure between the compressor and the throttle valve. When fully open, the waste gate valve routes the exhaust flow directly out the tailpipe, away from the turbine wheel. When fully closed, the waste gate valve routes the exhaust flow through the turbine wheel, thereby driving the turbine. During most stages of operation the controllers modulate the position of the valve to drive the turbine at the speed required to meet the engine power selection. The system is designed to work with no input from the pilot. 1, record 6, English, - density%20controller

La force de la pression d'huile dirigée vers l'actionneur est déterminée par deux régulateurs distincts : le régulateur de densité et le régulateur de pression différentielle. Le premier détecte la température et la pression de l'air dans l'entrée d'air moteur. Le second détecte la différence de pression entre celle du collecteur d'alimentation moteur et celle entre le compresseur et le papillon des gaz. Lorsqu'il est complètement ouvert, le limiteur achemine les gaz d'échappement directement dans le tuyau d'échappement, en contournant la turbine. Lorsqu'il est complètement fermé, le limiteur achemine les gaz d'échappement directement vers la turbine et la fait tourner. La plupart du temps, les régulateurs modulent la position du limiteur pour faire tourner la turbine à la vitesse correspondant au réglage de puissance du moteur.

In the Linear concept... aircraft are parked on the apron at the face of the terminals in perpendicular, angled or parallel parked positions. An airside corridor may be located parallel to the terminal face nearest the apron, with access to the terminal and aircraft gate positions at intervals. The linear configuration can be either centralized or decentralized. Ease of access and relatively short walking distances for originating passengers can result if the passenger is delivered to a point at or near his gate of departure by a vehicular circulation system(road and/or transit), which becomes a more dominant element in this concept than in the other concepts. The terminal area will be fully decentralized by locating the departure lounges, ticketing and baggage areas at each aircraft gate position. 2, record 14, English, - linear%20system

Système linéaire. Aux aérogares où seulement quelques postes de stationnement sont nécessaires, un système linéaire d'embarquement est une configuration logique (...) C'est le système habituellement utilisé aux petits aérodromes. Avec ce système, les distances de marche sont réduites. 1, record 14, French, - syst%C3%A8me%20lin%C3%A9aire
