OBS

The North American Vertical Datum of 1988(NAVD 88) is the vertical control datum established in 1991 by the minimum-constraint adjustment of the Canadian-Mexican-United States leveling observations. It held fixed the height of the primary tidal bench mark, referenced to the new International Great Lakes Datum of 1985 local mean sea level height value, at Father Point/Rimouski, Quebec, Canada.

CONT

Altimeter Settings. A local altimeter setting is required in order to fly the procedure. Some approaches are designed to make provision for a remote altimeter setting. In these instances, the procedure may be flown with a valid remote altimeter setting and application of remote altimeter setting source adjustment.

Calages altimétriques. Pour exécuter cette procédure, un calage altimétrique local est requis. Cependant, certaines approches sont conçues en fonction d'un calage altimétrique de région éloignée. En pareil cas, il est permis d'utiliser la procédure en se servant d'un calage altimétrique de région éloignée valide et d'une source de réglage de calage altimétrique de région éloignée.

The international financial community has come to accept that strong financial support by way of new credit is essential if adjustment programs are to succeed... The lenders should realistically appraise the governments’ capacity to finance local costs from their strained budgets and make suitable adjustment, in project funding proposals.

Subject field(s)
  • Rheology
  • Deterioration of Metals
  • Nuclear Fission Reactors
CONT

Pellet cladding interaction(PCI) failures are due to stress corrosion cracking in the cladding material, which is associated with local power ramps during reactor startup or maneuvering(i. e. rod adjustment/swaps, local follow).

French

Domaine(s)
  • Rhéologie
  • Altération des métaux
  • Réacteurs nucléaires de fission
CONT

Interaction pastille de combustible-gaine : au cours de l'irradiation, la pression de l'eau induit un fluage de la gaine (Zircaloy-4) qui se plaque sur la pastille, comblant le jeu entre la pastille et la gaine. Les dilatations thermiques de la pastille sont ainsi transmises à la gaine. Le phénomène de rupture du gainage par interaction pastille-gaine est dû alors à la conjonction des contraintes induites par la dilatation de la pastille et d'une attaque chimique interne de la gaine par l'iode.

English

Subject field(s)
  • Surveying Techniques
  • Mathematical Geography
DEF

A technique for computing a simultaneous least squares adjustment of a large data set by grouping the data into smaller pieces, called "blocks", and producing the complete covariance matrix used in calculating the local and network accuracies.

CONT

Helmert blocking, which was developed a little over 100 years ago by F. R. Helmert (Helmert 1880) is basically a technique for breaking up a least squares adjustment problem, which is too large to be managed as a single computation, into many smaller computational tasks with potentially large savings in computer storage and CPU requirements.

OBS

For this adjustment, the blocks were named by state and every GPS [global positioning system] project was assigned to a specific state block. This resulted in some data collected in one state appearing in another state Block but prevented splitting sessions of observations and minimizing junction points. Blocks are combined two at a time, reducing the number of station coordinates to be estimated to only those stations that are associated with GPS observations belonging to other blocks. Eventually only one block remains and a solution for the coordinates of its stations can be performed.

OBS

Helmert Blocking Method: term used at Natural Resources Canada - Earth Sciences Sector.

The former Industrial Adjustment Services has been merged into Local Labour Market Partnerships(LLMP). The LLMP support measure provides Human Resources Development Canada offices with the capacity to work with employers(company level), employee or employer associations, community organizations and others to consider innovative strategies to build employment. It also provides a capacity to address human resources issues in both upside and downside adjustment situations.

Les anciens Services d'aide à l'adaptation de l'industrie ont fusionné pour former les Partenariats locaux sur le marché du travail. Grâce à l'aide offerte en vertu des Partenariats, les Centres de ressources humaines Canada (CRHC) peuvent collaborer avec les employeurs (à l'échelle de l'entreprise), les associations d'employeurs ou d'employés, les organismes communautaires ou autres à l'étude de stratégies novatrices pour créer de l'emploi. Elle leur permet également de s'attaquer aux problèmes liés à l'adaptation des ressources humaines, aussi bien dans les cas d'expansion que de rationalisation de l'effectif.

Subject field(s)
  • Finance
  • Public Sector Budgeting
CONT

An analysis is made of the proposition stating inflexibility is found in government budgets, suggesting that government budgets are often out of equilibrium with constantly altering public service needs. The focus is on the specific issue of measuring the adjustment dynamics of public budgets, during the period of 1967-1974, in Australian local governments. Inflexibility may be caused by bureaucratic inertia or the existence of capital adjustment costs.
