entorno aislado; entorno de pruebas; espacio controlado de pruebas : La Fundación del Español Urgente(Fundéu BBVA), con el asesoramiento de la Real Academia Española, indica que el término inglés "sandbox" se puede traducir al español como "entorno aislado", "entorno de pruebas", "espacio controlado de pruebas" o "videojuego de libertad total", según los casos. [...] Esta palabra se emplea en el ámbito de la informática para designar un mecanismo de seguridad para ejecutar programas de forma aislada, y prevenir así daños en el resto del sistema. Con este sentido, se puede traducir como "entorno aislado". Asimismo, una de las aplicaciones de estos entornos es probar un nuevo programa informático o una web, por lo que la base terminológica de la Unión Europea(IATE, por sus siglas en inglés) ofrece la traducción "entorno de pruebas". 2, record 1, Spanish, - entorno%20de%20espacio%20aislado

[L'analyse thermogravimétrique] consiste à enregistrer en continu les variations de masse d'une substance soumise à une loi de chauffe déterminée dans une ambiance gazeuse donnée. [...] Le système de pesée est constitué par un fléau horizontal à suspension funiculaire. L'enregistrement graphique se fait, suivant le type d'appareil, soit par transmission électro-mécanique, soit par l'intermédiaire d'un suiveur de spot. Le dispositif de chauffage est constitué par un four électrique à réglage automatique permettant de suivre une loi de chauffe donnée a priori. Les essais, réalisés généralement avec une vitesse de chauffe de 150 °C/h jusqu'à la température finale de 1 000 °C environ, sont effectués en atmosphère oxygène, le débit étant de l'ordre de 0,1 1/mm, pour oxyder les matières organiques et la pyrite éventuellement présentes. 1, record 2, French, - analyse%20thermogravim%C3%A9trique
