Riprap that is large enough to resist all the hydraulic forces can fail if channel migration or scour undermines the toe support. When the riprap toe is undermined, it can shift and remain functional to some degree. Often an extra volume of riprap is included at the toe for this purpose, or the riprap toe is trenched to the depth of potential degradation and contraction scour. 1, record 1, English, - riprap%20toe

In order to increase the surface area of enzyme film per unit volume, various devices have been developed as practical equipment. For example, a spiral-type reactor.... Spirally-wound multipore biocatalytic modules have been shown to provide an excellent reactor configuration for the use of collagen-enzyme membrane systems. The spiral-wound reactor offers a number of advantages. It guides the flow through a number of organized flow channels which offer low and essentially equal hydraulic resistances. Therefore, all the fluid elements spend the same residence time in contact with the membrane unit thus ensuring good contact efficiency. The small fluid channels provide a large membrane surface area per unit reactor volume and high throughput. 3, record 6, English, - spiral%2Dtype%20reactor

Each of the two hydraulic systems for the Douglas DC-9 airplane is provided with an auxiliary, electrically driven, variable-displacement hydraulic pump. The pumps are explosion-resistant, hydraulic-fluid-cooled and lubricated, self-supercharged, and pressure-and horsepower-controlled. They are capable of supplying a nonpulsating flow of hydraulic fluid in varying volume, depending upon system pressure... Control of the pumps is accomplished by means of switches in the flight compartment. If one engine should stop or if the hydraulic pump on that engine should fail, it is merely necessary to turn on the electric pump switch to place the system back in full operation. Each pump is connected to its respective system by means of flexible hoses with a ground power suction disconnect fitting installed in the suction line. The left pump can be quickly removed and installed in the right system if the right pump fails. 2, record 7, English, - electric%20auxiliary%20pump

De plus les pompes auxiliaires sont indispensables au sol puisqu'elles permettent de fournir la pression hydraulique nécessaire au circuit principal de frein lorsque tous les réacteurs se sont arrêtés; c'est à dire pendant le début de la poussé inversé des réacteurs à l'atterrissage ou en cas de remorquage de l'avion. 3, record 7, French, - pompe%20%C3%A9lectrique%20auxiliaire
