... a stack bar chart... is based on stacking the components of each bar on top of one another. It is also known as a component bar chart because it shows how each bar is made of its component parts. A stacked bar chart is particularly useful if you want to emphasize the relative proportions of each category, in other words, to show the balance with the categories of one attribute... between the categories of another attribute. 4, record 1, English, - stacked%20bar%20chart

The line of balance(LOB) technique is a charting technique for monitoring assembly line progress. The four inputs which are required for an LOB chart are(1) the production plan, showing the key-milestone events of the production process;(2) the cumulative schedule of time to reach each milestone;(3) the production progress, recorded on a vertical Gantt bar chart; and(4) the line of balance, which is a stairstep line obtained by calculating the cumulative number of units which must be completed to meet the schedule for each milestone. 2, record 3, English, - line%20of%20balance%20technique

the film balance, devised by Langmuir in 1917, is still the principal instrument used to study(monolaye) films. Essentially, it is a shallow trough filled with water on which the substance is spread. A bar or barrier can be pushed across the trough to compress the film. The surface pressure exerted by the film is measured by a sensitive floating, suspended balance. 1, record 4, English, - film%20balance

la balance à films, dessinée par Langmuir en 1917, est encore le principal instrument utilisé dans l'étude (des films monolamellaires). Elle consiste en une cuvette peu profonde, remplie d'eau, sur laquelle on étend la substance. Une tige ou barrière peut être poussée à la surface de la cuvette pour comprimer le film. La tension superficielle exercée par le film est mesurée à l'aide d'une balance sensible qui est reliée à un flotteur à la surface de l'eau. 1, record 4, French, - balance%20%C3%A0%20films
