CONT

Il est d'une fierté sans pareille!

OBS

Lorsque le nom auquel «sans pareil» se rapporte est féminin, «pareil» s'accorde en genre et en nombre avec ce nom : une intelligence sans pareille; des beautés sans pareilles. Lorsque le nom est masculin, l'accord en nombre est le plus fréquent (des talents sans pareils), mais il demeure facultatif (des talents sans pareil) […]

OBS

L'invariabilité [de «sans pareil»], plus rare, n'est pas incorrecte : des perles sans pareil (= sans rien de pareil). L'accord semble cependant plus conforme à la tendance actuelle de l'usage.

DEF

A ... balloon attached to a cable that is used to raise and lower the balloon.

CONT

Captive balloons were used for military observations in the U. S. Civil War, and now these craft can thrill passengers with unparalleled views.

OBS

In order to hold the balloon steady at a predetermined position in the sky, two methods are possible. One is to tether it by cables, and the other is to provide it with power.

OBS

A tethered balloon [may be] carrying instruments for making observations in the lower layers of the atmosphere.

OBS

Tethered balloons have been deployed from fixed locations over land and from ships.

OBS

tethered balloon: term used in Australian Civil Aviation Safety’s, Federal Aviation Administration’s, and Transports Canada’s Regulations.

OBS

In Canada, a permanently-tethered balloon system is an "aircraft" under the definition of the Aeronautics Act. Specifically, a balloon is defined as a "non-power driven lighter-than-air aircraft". Whether operating freely, under temporary tether or as a permanently-tethered unit, balloons are subject to the Canadian Aviation Regulations (CARs).

OBS

captive balloon: term used in the International Civil Aviation Organization’s and ISO’s documentation. Term opposed to "free balloon."

OBS

captive balloon: term standardized by ISO.

OBS

tethered ballon, moored balloon: Federal Aviation Administration regards any balloon which is designed for carrying persons as an aircraft, and as such it must be certificated and operated in accordance with the applicable rules for aircraft. Such a passenger carrying balloon is considered tethered when it is inflated and held to the ground, in whatever manner. A moored balloon (for which there are no prescribed airworthiness standards because passenger carrying was not intended) is essentially any lighter-than-air object operated under 14 CFR [Code of Federal Regulation] Part 101. Such a balloon must be restrained with mooring lines to hold it stationary in the intended location, and the balloon must comply with the provisions of 14 CFR Part 101.

PHR

Gas, non-spherical, spherical captive balloon.

DEF

Ballon [...] relié par un câble à un appareillage qui le monte ou le descend.

CONT

Les ballons captifs furent [au] XIXe siècle des attractions recherchées; par exemple le ballon géant de Giffard relié à un treuil à vapeur enlevait 50 voyageurs à la fois jusqu'à 500 m de haut.

CONT

En 1939, la France restait le seul belligérant à mettre en œuvre des compagnies de ballons. Elle dut très rapidement les retirer du front en raison des pertes qu'ils subirent [...] Les captifs furent désormais, dans toutes les aviations militaires, employés comme ballons de protection destinés à empêcher, grâce à un quadrillage de câbles d'acier, l'approche des avions ennemis à basse altitude.

OBS

Le ballon captif peut être équipé d'instruments pour faire des observations dans les basses couches de l'atmosphère. Il peut aussi servir à la surveillance aérienne, à l'observation des paysages (tourisme aérien), à l'étude du couvert végétal en forêt, à la photographie aérienne de basse altitude, au tournage de films, etc.

Subject field(s)
  • Racquet Sports
DEF

Leather-like wrapping around the handle of the racket, frequently changed by the top players to adjust the feel and wear.

CONT

Grip coverings can be fitted to provide more "feel". Tightly wind the grip covering diagonally up the handle from the butt end. Secure it by overlapping the first wrap and taping it down at the end.

OBS

A "grip" can be wrapped around the "shaft" of the racquet. To avoid confusion (the term "grip" alone could refer to a certain way of grasping the racquet), use one of the following terms: "overgrip", "replacement grip" or "grip covering". Note that for marketing purposes, competing manufacturers will make a distinction between the 3 terms. Indeed some tennis purists would rather use the term "overgrip" for the material that one slides over an existing and worn-out covering and the term "replacement grip" for the material that one wraps over the shaft after removing the worn-out one. If in doubt, use the more generic term "grip covering" which can apply to either of these two types. Nonetheless the average tennis player will likely use the abbreviated term "grip" even though it is both ambiguous and polysemous since the context will normally provide ample clarification.

CONT

... features Head’s Ultrazorb in the handle to dampen vibration and a new contoured grip for [a] more secure feel.

PHR

Australian, cushion, replacement, tacky grip covering.

PHR

Grip covering delivers unparalleled comfort.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Sports de raquette
DEF

Matière, en général du cuir qui entoure le manche d'une raquette de tennis.

CONT

Les poignées de raquettes sont habituellement en cuir [...] La poignée se compose de 8 faces incluant le dessus et le dessous, les méplats et les chanfreins [...] En général, la grosseur des poignées varie entre 2 et 5 (système européen) [...]

CONT

Pour mieux sentir la raquette, on peut ajouter un couvre-manche synthétique. À partir du talon, enrouler fermement le ruban en diagonale autour de la poignée tout en le faisant se chevaucher. Fixer avec l'embout.

CONT

La poignée est composée de ruban ultra adhésif de type Contour Cushion, idéal pour le confort et la performance.

CONT

Les grips en tissu adhésif ou en éponge assurent une meilleure prise.

OBS

En général, le français n'a retenu qu'un seul sens de l'anglicisme polysémique «grip». Bref, en français il veut dire cuir ou tissu-éponge qui revêt le manche de la raquette pour contrarier le glissement de la main. Un «grip» en mauvais état est souvent cause d'ampoules aux doigts et à la paume de la main. Ne pas confondre avec «poignet», bandeau que l'on porte autour du poignet pour absorber la transpiration. Dans certains textes d'expression française, on voit encore l'anglicisme «grip».

PHR

Poignée absorbante, mousse, rembourrée, SoftZorb, synthétique.

PHR

La poignée s'effiloche, perd son efficacité.

Subject field(s)
  • Engineering Tests and Reliability
  • Aeronautical Engineering and Maintenance
CONT

In the rigid-airfoil study, the airfoil is set to either torsional or flapping motion at different oscillatory frequencies. Different freestream Mach numbers and preset angles of attack are also included in the test matrix. Moreover, the test matrix also accounts for different positions of the wake flow survey rake, traversable in the airfoil downstream. A combination of these parameters must be used to locate a specific experimental data set.

OBS

The prediction of these operating limits has been an area of active research at the NRC [National Research Council] Institute for Aerospace Research(NRC Aerospace) for the past decade. In addition to standard airwake flow survey capabilities, NRC Aerospace researchers have developed an unparalleled high-fidelity wind tunnel simulation of the helicopter/ship dynamic interface. The combination of a scaled powered rotor and a fuselage model mounted around a stiff, lightweight balance has led to a unique capability.

OBS

A pressure rake probe was used to confirm the inlet endwall boundary layer thicknesses. Five-hole probe wake surveys were performed to determine loss coefficients and axial velocity ratios.

OBS

rake (peigne de mesure): A device consisting essentially of a row of pressure-measuring tubes or temperature-sensitive elements arranged like a rake or comb, used to sense the pressure or temperature at desired intervals in a fluid flow.

Si la balle frappe le cordage dans la zone d'impact, vous ressentirez très peu de vibrations, votre balle aura beaucoup de vélocité et votre coup sera précis et bien senti [...] Au contraire, si le coup est décentré - balle frappée près du cadre, en dehors de la zone d'impact - vous aurez comme résultat beaucoup de vibrations, une balle «molle» dont le destin semble inconnu et, en prime, votre raquette aura tendance à vous tourner dans la main (effet de couple).

CONT

[Un autre facteur qui influencent l'achat d'une raquette] est la rigidité du cadre. Un cadre plus rigide augmentera la puissance, mais diminuera le contrôle et augmentera la vibration du cadre.

PHR
