Record number: 2, Textual support number: 2 CONT

Metabolic carts are computerized instruments [that are mounted on a cart and] used to measure metabolic energy expenditure as well as cardiovascular and respiratory function at rest or during exercise.... The uniqueness of a metabolic cart is that, given the appropriate software, stand alone gas analyzers and airflow measurement devices can be integrated with a computer..., color monitor and printer. Peripheral analog input channels allow connection of external devices such as cycle ergometers, treadmills, pulse oximeters, blood pressure monitors and heart rate monitors.... the user can select or configure the cardiovascular, pulmonary and metabolic parameters for simultaneous display in a real time graphic, numeric or hard copy format.  3, record 2, English, - metabolic%20cart

Les langues anglaise et française ne découpent pas la réalité de la même façon : l'anglais met l'accent sur la forme (surface dure) et le français sur la fin («de stationnement»). Pour être très précis on pourrait être tenté d'utiliser une expression plus complète, comme «aire de stationnement à chaussée rigide» et d'ajouter, même, «pour avions». Selon nous, cependant, «aire de stationnement» tout court suffit, étant donné que les aires de stationnement, en raison de contraintes techniques, sont à revêtement dur et que le contexte suffit pour situer le lecteur quant au type de véhicule en cause. Signalons, enfin, que les expressions «aire en dur», «aire en béton», «aire bétonnée» et «surface en dur» nous apparaissent comme des calques de l'anglais.  8, record 3, French, - aire%20de%20stationnement

The definition of rock from an engineering or functional viewpoint is complicated by structures and defects. A rock that is hard but fractured may be easier to excavate than a softer but more coherent material. Although the fractured rock is easier to excavate, it may require bracing to support it in a deep excavation, whereas the soft rock may stand without support.  2, record 5, English, - soft%20rock

Record number: 5, Textual support number: 1 OBS

An imprecise term used to denote materials that are more coherent than soils, yet are less coherent than many rocks. Two empirical definitions are that a soft rock does not need to be excavated by blasting, and that a soft rock has an unconfined compressive strength of between 400 and 1000 kN/m². It may be noted that to the geologist all sedimentary rocks are termed soft rocks, which may lead to confusion in an engineering context, since many sedimentary rocks cannot be excavated mechanically.  3, record 5, English, - soft%20rock

When you do a headspring, try to be as dynamic and forceful as possible with your arm-pushing action so that you do not have to rely on excessive arching to land on your feet.  3, record 6, English, - headspring

Begin by squatting down and looking at the mat in front of you just beyond your outstretched, shoulder-width arms. Reach for the mat with your hands and put the top of your head on the mat between them as you extend your legs forcefully. This will drive your seat over your head and put you in a pike position. When... your seat is past your head, open your body rapidly into an arch-kip-and push down hard on the mat.... Land with your arms overhead in an upright stand....  2, record 6, English, - headspring
