"Groundhogging" refers to the tendency to repeatedly date the same type of person, despite past similar relationships not working out. This highlights the futility of going after the same kind of partner and expecting different results, which often leads to the same recurring relationship issues. 1, record 1, English, - groundhogging

When a turbine comes to rest, after operating, the cooler denser steam tends to collect in the lower half of the cylinder and makes the lower half of the rotor cool quicker than the upper half. This causes the shaft to hog(bend upwards). When at rest and cool, the shaft will begin to sag under its own weight. If the turbine shaft is not rotated, hogging, especially above a critical temperature, can become permanent and the shaft would have to be sent to the manufacturer for heat treatment and straightening. 1, record 3, English, - hogging

Lors du ralentissement d'une turbine occasionné par un arrêt de production, la vapeur plus froide et plus dense s'accumule dans la moitié inférieure du boîtier. En conséquence, la moitié inférieure du rotor refroidit plus rapidement que sa partie supérieure ce qui cause un fléchissement vers le haut de l'axe de la turbine. Par contre, l'arbre d'une turbine au repos et refroidie commencera à s'affaisser sous son propre poids. À une température supérieure à un point critique, si l'on ne tourne pas l'arbre de la turbine, le fléchissement vers le haut pourra devenir permanent. 1, record 3, French, - fl%C3%A9chissement%20vers%20le%20haut

A ship that has experienced hogging is said to be hogged. Instead of showing a flat, level hull line, a hogged ship is "curved", with the bow and stern lower than the center of the ship. 3, record 5, English, - hogged%20ship
Record number: 5, Textual support number: 1 OBS
Hogging occurs because the bow and stern of the ship, while carrying a considerable amount of heavy equipment, possesses relatively little buoyancy. The center of the ship, on the other hand, possesses a great deal of buoyancy and may be quite light-weight if the ship is not loaded with heavy cargo or ballast. This unequal distribution of forces, with great weights but little buoyancy fore and aft, and little weight but great buoyancy amidships, leads to deformation of the hull. 3, record 5, English, - hogged%20ship
