The wet-bulb globe temperature(WBGT) index was originally developed based on the weighting of three environmental parameters : dry-bulb temperature, wet-bulb temperature and black globe temperature. A shielded dry-bulb thermometer, a natural wet-bulb thermometer and a globe thermometer(a black globe heated by solar radiation) are used to capture these environmental parameters. The WBGT index was later standardized... and is now widely used as a heat stress index throughout the world, with the guidelines and permissible threshold limits in many industries, including construction and underground mining operations, being based on this measure. 2, record 1, English, - wet%2Dbulb%20globe%20temperature%20index

Austenitic manganese steels are used in applications requiring high-impact abrasion resistance. Examples of their use are comminution equipment for mining and mineral processing, coal pulverisers for power generation, railway frogs for transportation, and shredder hammers for automotive recycling. Although these materials are brittle in their as-cast condition, their high toughness is obtained after a solution annealing and quenching heat treatment [solution heat treatment]. 3, record 2, English, - austenitic%20manganese%20steel

Les aciers austénitiques au manganèse sont utilisés pour des applications exigeant une résistance élevée aux chocs et à l'abrasion. Ils servent entre autres à fabriquer du matériel de comminution pour l'extraction du minerai et le traitement des minéraux, des appareils de pulvérisation du charbon pour le secteur de la production d'électricité, des cœurs de croisement de voies ferrées dans le domaine du transport ainsi que des déchiqueteurs à marteaux pour le recyclage des pièces d'automobiles. Ces matériaux sont fragiles dans leur état brut de coulée, mais leur ténacité peut être grandement accrue en les soumettant à un traitement thermique de recuit de solution et de trempe [hypertrempe]. 2, record 2, French, - acier%20Hadfield
