The important thing to remember about flying an unstable aircraft is that control forces - admittedly small ones - have to be exercised all the time, even to keep the aircraft flying straight and level. ... The accepted term for such a machine that can be flown only by a continual balancing of control forces is a control configured vehicle (CCV). ...

Ablating materials are used on the surfaces of some reentry vehicles to absorb heat by removal of mass, thus blocking the transfer of heat to the rest of the vehicle and maintaining temperatures within design limits. Ablating materials absorb heat by increasing in temperature and changing in chemical or physical state. The heat is carried away from the surface by a loss of mass (liquid or vapor). The departing mass also blocks part of the convective heat transfer to the remaining material in the same manner as transpiration cooling. 1, record 9, English, - ablating%20material

Extruded polystyrene [XEPS] foam begins with solid polystyrene crystals. The crystals, along with special additives and a blowing agent, are fed into an extruder. Within the extruder the mixture is combined and melted, under controlled conditions of high temperature and pressure, into a viscous plastic fluid. The hot, thick liquid is then forced in a continuous process through a die. As it emerges from the die it expands to a foam, is shaped, cooled, and trimmed to dimension. This continuous extrusion process results in a unique foam product with a uniform closed-cell structure, a smooth continuous skin, and consistent product qualities, qualities unequaled by other insulation types. 6, record 16, English, - extruded%20polystyrene%20foam

Extruded polystyrene foam ... There is considerable confusion about extruded foam, mainly because it is made by many different companies, and appears in many different colors and densities. There is "artboard", green foam, pink foam, gray foam, blue foam and more. All of these are extruded polystyrene. The lowest density extruded styrene foams all range about 1.75 pounds per cubic foot. Curiously, extruded foam panels from the same manufacturer exhibit considerable variation in density ... ranging from 1.8 to 2.1 pounds per cubic foot, all in the same batch. ... Different manufacturers also produce different qualities of extruded foam. Some foam seems to have more impurities and air bubbles than others. 7, record 16, English, - extruded%20polystyrene%20foam

Les plastiques alvéolaires à base de résine de polystyrène sont généralement des mousses rigides à alvéoles fermés qui peuvent être fabriquées ayant des masses spécifiques variant de 1 à 30 lb/pi³; la plupart d’entre elles se trouvent dans la gamme de masses spécifiques allant de 1 à 5 lb/pi³. Il existe actuellement deux principaux types de mousse de polystyrène : la mousse extrudée et la mousse moulée. [...] La mousse extrudée. Pour produire ce type de mousse on commence par fondre une matière plastique à base de polystyrène contenant un agent gonflant(moussant) à température élevée et sous pression, ensuite, la masse fondue est extrudée dans l'atmosphère à travers une fente; à ce point, la masse subit une expansion qui peut atteindre environ 40 fois son volume initial. Elle est extrudée sous forme de planche ayant une pellicule superficielle continue ou bien de grosses billettes qui peuvent être découpées en planches normalisées ou usinées pour leur donner toute autre forme désirée. Les outils servant à travailler le bois(manuels ou électriques) sont employés ordinairement pour donner aux matières plastiques alvéolaires la forme voulue, bien que le découpage à la scie à fil permette d’obtenir une surface plus lisse. Les mousses extrudées ont une structure plus simple et plus régulière que les mousses moulées; elles ont aussi une résistance mécanique plus élevée et une plus haute résistance à l'eau. 1, record 16, French, - mousse%20de%20polystyr%C3%A8ne%20extrud%C3%A9e

Lorsque l'effet de réflexion sur le sol intervient, l'hypothèse d’une source image fictive implique qu'il n’ y a pas d’absorption à la surface du sol et que la réflexion du panache est parfaite. De même cette formule ne tient pas compte des réactions chimiques possibles dans l'atmosphère. En outre, comme elle traduit une répartition Gaussienne [sic] des concentrations sur les axes transversaux, cette dernière ne devient significative que pour des temps d’intégration suffisants, compris entre 10 et 20 minutes selon la structure de la turbulence; mais il est évident que seule une valeur intégrée est biologiquement utilisable et que la connaissance de pointes extrêmes de concentrations ne présenterait pas en principe d’intérêt. Toutefois, avec l'accroissement des puissances d’émission on observe parfois, en atmosphère neutre surmontée d’une inversion, des arrivées de panache au sol même, à proche distance de la cheminée, pendant des durées non négligeables, et d’autant plus dangereuses que les puissances d’émission sont alors considérables. 1, record 19, French, - r%C3%A9partition%20gaussienne%20des%20concentrations
