When the flow of water through fire hose or pipe is suddenly stopped, such as by suddenly closing a nozzle, a shock wave is produced when the moving water reaches the end of the hose and bounces back. The resulting pressure surge is referred to as water hammer.  4, record 1, English, - water%20hammer

Lorsque le débit d'eau dans un tuyau d'incendie ou une canalisation est arrêté brusquement, par exemple en fermant rapidement une lance d'incendie, une onde de choc se produit lorsque l'eau en mouvement atteint l'extrémité du tuyau et rebondit.

El cierre brusco de una tubería, el cortar la corriente, provoca un aumento instantáneo de la presión del agua. Esta zona de presión se propaga rápidamente (con la velocidad del sonido) en la tubería y puede hacerla estallar si tiene alguna junta o punto de menor resistencia. Este fenómeno, llamado golpe de ariete, reviste mucha importancia en las obras hidráulicas, especialmente en las presas hidroeléctricas.  4, record 1, Spanish, - golpe%20de%20ariete

The conference "Converging Technologies for a Diverse Europe" on September 14 and 15, 2004 in Brussels marked an important step in exploring the impacts and opportunities of the "new technology wave. "... However, the Report from the Expert Group had integrated the social sciences in NBIC [nanotechnologies, biotechnologies, information technologies and cognitive sciences], and the key concept was CTEKS, ’Converging Technologies for the European Knowledge Society, ’with whose convergence and its impact on Europe and the world at large were to be analysed.  3, record 2, English, - Converging%20Technologies%20for%20the%20European%20Knowledge%20Society

Les puissances disponibles s’expriment par unité de longueur de front de vague et atteignent quelques 10 kW [kilowatts]/m. [Parmi les] principaux dispositifs exploitant l’énergie des vagues [on trouve le] système à flotteur immergé; une partie fixe du système est ancrée et une partie mobile sollicitée par la poussée d’Archimède subit les ondulations de pression hydrauliques de la houle et oscille […] Le système AWS (Archimedes Wave Swing) […] Chaque unité de production se trouve immergée à 8 m sous la surface. Un flotteur, de 21 m de hauteur et 9,5 m de diamètre, actionne un piston et entraîne un générateur linéaire synchrone d’une puissance de 2 MW [mégawatts]. Le flotteur est mis en résonance par les vagues; ainsi, une amplitude de houle de 1 m [mètre] peut donner des mouvements de 7 m.  1, record 4, French, - syst%C3%A8me%20AWS

(ESWL) works in something like a high-tech Ribe Goldberg sequence. The patient, usually anesthetized from the waist down to obliterate the mild discomfort of the shocks, is strapped onto a pallet and lowered into a specially designed tub full of water. X-rays reveal the precise location of the kidney stone on two television monitors. The physician pushes a button, and a spark plug at the bottom of the tank fires, vaporizing some of the water, which then creates a pressure wave. After bouncing off an elliptical brass reflector that is aimed at the patient's kidney stone, the wave passes harmlessly through the patient's tissues but creates a shattering impact when it collides with the hard stone. More than a thousand individual shocks may be required to completely break up a stone, which will wash away in the patient's urine after it disintegrates.  6, record 6, English, - extracorporeal%20shock%20wave%20lithotripter
