Il est difficile de trouver des critères parfaits pour différencier les crics et les vérins. En effet la plupart des crics ont une crémaillère et une manivelle, la plupart des vérins ont une vis, un écrou et un levier. Cependant on trouve des crics à vis comme les crics de voitures. [...] Nous constatons aussi d’une part que la charge maximale admissible pour un cric ne dépasse pas 20 tonnes, alors que celle des vérins va jusqu’à 300 tonnes, et d’autre part que les crics servent surtout à faire mouvoir une charge, tandis que les vérins servent plutôt à la caler. [...] Les vérins ont un usage beaucoup plus spécialisé que les crics et sont souvent construits spécialement en fonction de leur destination [...] 7, record 4, French, - cric%20%C3%A0%20vis

Down-hole percussive drills ... consist primarily of a string of drill rods attached to a percussion drill bit at the bottom of the hole. However, instead of the mechanical energy being transmitted to the bit from the surface of the hole via the entire string of rods, the power unit is located "down the hole" immediately above the bit, thus eliminating energy loss through friction of the drill string against the shaft walls and through the threaded connections of the drill rods. 1, record 6, English, - down%2Dthe%2Dhole%20percussion%20drill

Les marteaux fond de trou. Les marteaux-perforateurs classiques transmettent l'énergie de destruction de la roche par l'intermédiaire du train de tige. D'où des pertes d’énergie non négligeables dues à l'élasticité de ce train de tige et à son poids lorsque la foration se fait en montant. Parfois il y a des déviations importantes du trou foré. Une solution très originale est parfois employée. Le marteau cylindrique est descendu dans le trou et assure ainsi une frappe directe, d’autant plus efficace que la pression d’air comprimé est plus importante. L'air comprimé est amené au marteau par le train de tige lui-même qui assurera par ailleurs la rotation de l'ensemble : marteau + taillant. 1, record 6, French, - marteau%20fond%20de%20trou

Jerne's Network hypothesis. This theory, as originally formulated, stated that since the repertoire of shapes that antibodies can bind to is virtually unlimited, and since antibodies themselves have an enormous variety of idiotypic shapes, they may interact with each other specifically to form an idiotypic network. Network theory is an extension of Jerne's hypothesis proposing that lymphocytes as well as antibodies can modulate the activity of others via their receptors. 1, record 7, English, - idiotypic%20network

Le réseau idiotypique. Les anticorps sont formés d’une tige(partie Fc) associée à deux sites de reconnaissance(Fab). La partie Fc peut se fixer, par l'intermédiaire d’un récepteur spécifique, à un monocyte, un macrophage et un lymphocyte B; elle peut s’accoupler à des molécules solubles comme le complément, la protéine A du staphylocoque, etc. Le site anticorps(appelé paratope) définit l'idiotype de la molécule et reconnaît sur l'antigène un déterminant appelé épitope. Le site anticorps peut lui-même servir d’antigène pour un autre anticorps, les déterminants antigéniques de l'idiotype étant dénommés idiotypes. 1, record 7, French, - r%C3%A9seau%20idiotypique
