It was determined that a combination of the centrifugal force and the dynamic forces generated by the track geometry conditions at a speed of 65 mph was sufficient to cause the derailment. With extremely high lateral forces on the high rail, gauge widening could occur. Furthermore, with complete unloading on the low rail, wheel lift could occur. Either of these conditions or a combination could cause track damage and a derailment. 2, record 1, English, - wheel%20lift

L'analyse a permis de déterminer que la force centrifuge jumelée aux forces dynamiques générées par la géométrie de la voie à une vitesse de 65 mi/h était suffisante pour causer le déraillement. Les forces latérales extrêmement élevées qui s'exerçaient sur le rail haut pouvaient entraîner un surécartement de la voie. En outre, l'absence totale d’une force exercée sur le rail bas pouvait causer le soulèvement des roues. L'une ou l'autre de ces conditions, ou une combinaison des deux, pouvait endommager la voie et causer un déraillement. 2, record 1, French, - soul%C3%A8vement%20des%20roues

The seam detector... has been developed for all conventional dye machines and is used to find the seam during sample or unloading.... The sensor will be mounted on the outside of the dye machine.... the seam detector uses a magnet sensor that ensures a secure detection of the seam regardless of the fabric speed.... The magnet, sewed into the seam, will be securely detected at any state of movement – even if the fabric stands still. 2, record 2, English, - seam%20detector

This wave starts as a plunging, then the wave catches up with the crest, and the breaker surges up the beach face as a wall of water(with the wave crest and base traveling at the same speed). This results in a quickly rising and falling water level on the beach face, which makes holding craft position and unloading very difficult. 4, record 3, English, - surging%20breaker
