The more evident and more serious blisters are structural blisters. They occur in many forms of deformation and are not confined to the exposed surface. They are caused mainly by the expansion of trapped air and water-vapour or moisture or other gases. Air and moisture trapped within the construction tend to expand during a rise in air temperature or from the heat of the sun, and this expansion causes the plies of the roofing to separate and bulge the roof surface in a balloon effect. The blisters are spongy to the touch, and may occur between any of the layers of roofing felt, or between membrane and deck, or membrane and insulation. 3, record 4, English, - air%20pocket

Les poches d’air ou d’humidité emprisonnées entre la membrane et le substrat se dilatent sous l'effet de la chaleur soudaine du soleil et déplacent la membrane en formant de petites boursouflures. Une boursouflure n’ apparaîtra que si le matériau dont est fait le substrat possède une faible perméabilité; dans ces conditions, le réchauffement de la température sous l'effet du soleil peut être trop rapide pour permettre à l'air ou à la vapeur d’eau de s’échapper par le substrat. De la pression se développe alors dans les poches d’air, ce qui peut provoquer le déplacement et l'étirement de la membrane de couverture et faire grossir les poches d’air ou boursouflures. Si la membrane subit un étirement irréversible, le rafraîchissement subséquent ne permettra pas à la poche d’air de reprendre sa dimension première et il se créera un vide partiel dans la boursouflure alors formée en partie. L'air ou la vapeur d’eau peuvent être aspirés lentement à travers le substrat et remplir la poche d’air initiale, dont la dimension augmente alors légèrement et qui est prête à déclencher, au retour du soleil, un autre cycle de développement de la boursouflure. 2, record 4, French, - poche%20d%27air

Volcanic craters are formed either by explosion or collapse. ... Collapse craters are formed when the pressure of the molten rock, or magma, inside a volcano can no longer support the weight of the rock or lava above it. This may happen after most of the magma has been drained away during an eruption of the volcano. The material that is no longer supported collapses into the space previously occupied by the magma, thus forming a crater. Well-known examples of collapse craters are found on the summit of Mauna Loa in the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. 4, record 5, English, - collapse%20crater
