A casting technique whereby molten metal is thrust into a mold by centrifugal force. 2, record 2, English, - centrifugal%20casting
Record number: 2, Textual support number: 1 CONT
The inertia forces of rotation distribute the molten metal into the mold cavities during the centrifugal casting, of which there are three categories : true centrifugal casting, semi-centrifugal casting, and centrifuging. The first two processes produce hollow cylindrical shapes and parts with rotational symmetry, respectively. In the third process the mold cavities are spun at a certain radius from the axis of rotation; the centrifugal force thus increases the pressure in the mold cavity. 3, record 2, English, - centrifugal%20casting

Drawing is forming a flat piece of metal into a seamless hollow shape, using a punch that causes the metal to flow into a die cavity or opening. It is most extensively applied of all the forming methods for aluminum and involves the widest variety of techniques. The starting form for virtually all drawing operations is a blank. 2, record 13, English, - drawing

On entend par emboutissage la mise en forme d'une feuille de métal généralement plane, appelée flan, en une pièce creuse de surface non développable, la déformation ayant lieu, tout au moins théoriquement, à surface, donc à épaisseur constante. Ce travail est exécuté à l'aide d'un outillage spécialement créé pour la pièce, et monté sur une presse. [...] Les pièces embouties en alliage d'aluminium sont nombreuses et de formes très variées. Les plus faciles à fabriquer sont les pièces à parois latérales perpendiculaires au flan, le fond étant ou non mis en forme, dans lesquels la tôle est maintenue pendant toute la durée de l'opération entre le poinçon, qui est à la forme intérieure de la pièce, et la matrice, qui est à la forme extérieure. 3, record 13, French, - emboutissage

The result of condensation on the back of an exterior masonry wall is often visible as a wetness pattern on the face of the wall. The upward movement of warm air in the cavity is frequently blocked by such things as shelf angles, frames around grilles for air intake and exhaust, and other obstructions such as loose insulation. 3, record 14, English, - cavity

Many houses built between 1950 and 1980 were constructed with cavity walls without incorporating any insulation measures. Heat loss through the walls of a house can be as much as 50% in this case. The standard practice to install cavity wall insulation involves filling the cavity with pumped-in insulating material. 4, record 14, English, - cavity

The inertia forces of rotation distribute the molten metal into the mold cavities during the centrifugal casting, of which there are three categories : true centrifugal casting, semi-centrifugal casting, and centrifuging. The first two processes produce hollow cylindrical shapes and parts with rotational symmetry, respectively. In the third process the mold cavities are spun at a certain radius from the axis of rotation; the centrifugal force thus increases the pressure in the mold cavity. 1, record 22, English, - centrifuging
