TWIN SET : Papier peint dont le côté apparent est un textile imprimé, non tissé, et dont le support est un papier pré-encollé. PEELABLE : Il suffit de plonger un papier "twin set" dans l'eau et de la coller sur le mur. Si l'on veut en changer, on arrache le textile d’un seul coup, et le nouveau "twin set" se colle sur la couche de base du précédent, qui sert de papier d’apprêt. Cette qualité du papier portait le nom de "strippabilité"(de l'anglais to strip=dépouiller), et le papier était dit "strippable". Or le mot "pelable" s’imposa non seulement en français, mais aussi en anglais, sous la forme "peelable". Ce qui entraîna un glissement du sens de "strippable", qui qualifie maintenant un autre genre de revêtement mural, formé d’une seule couche, mais qui peut être facilement décollé du mur, à sec. ÉQUIVALENTS : twin set :(papier) DUPLEX, peelable : PELABLE, strippable : DÉTACHABLE. Dans ce dernier cas, en effet "pelable" ne convient pas, car ce n’ est plus le papier, mais le mur qui serait pelable. 1, record 1, French, - duplex

At the end of the J stroke, the paddle is kniffed forward underwater with the power face of the paddle almost flat and facing up. Steering is accomplished by pulling up on the blade as it is brought forward. About halfway through the recovery, the paddle is allowed to slip out of the water in readiness for the next power stroke. The trick is getting a very slight angle on the blade as it comes forward. If the angle is wrong the paddle will plane out of the water or drive too deep. The angle is controlled by the upper hand. 2, record 8, English, - Canadian%20stroke

Les oscillations de relaxation sont des oscillations non linéaires, obtenues par augmentation continue d’une contrainte, puis relâchement subit de celle-ci. Lorsque la contrainte devient trop forte, la partie résistante cède brusquement, une partie de l'énergie est évacuée, la contrainte croît à nouveau et le cycle recommence.

Weather observations at Gander are taken from two locations. The primary observation site is located on the roof of the terminal building; a second observation site is located at ground level about 200 feet from the terminal building. When freezing precipitation is present or suspected, weather observers use an ice accretion indicator composed of a small piece of aluminum alloy similar to that found in aircraft structure. It is placed outside at the observation site and inspected for the presence of freezing precipitation at each observation. Mandatory weather observations are taken every 30 minutes, at the hour and half hour. When freezing precipitation is present, the indicator is removed and a new one installed at each mandatory observation. Prior to installation, the indicator is pre-cooled to ambient temperature. Thus, when observed at the next observation following installation, the indicator shows the type and quantity of freezing precipitation which occurred in the previous 30 minutes. 2, record 11, English, - ice%20accretion%20indicator

Freezing fog may not always deposit rime or glaze on the "Ice Accretion Indicator", however if rime or glaze are evident, it positively indicates the presence of super-cooled water droplets and thus freezing rain, freezing drizzle or freezing fog is occurring.

Le brouillard verglaçant peut ne pas toujours déposer de givre blanc ou de verglas sur l'«indicateur d’accumulation de glace». Toutefois, si la présence de givre blanc ou de verglas est évidente, on peut conclure à la présence de gouttelettes d’eau surfondues et, du coup, de la formation de pluie verglaçante, de bruine verglaçante ou de brouillard verglaçant; Le brouillard verglaçant entraîne un important risque de givrage sur la cellule des aéronefs. Il s’agit donc d’une donnée d’exploitation essentielle pour les prévisionnistes, les pilotes, les spécialistes de l'information de vol, les observateurs, les communicateurs et autres. 1, record 11, French, - indicateur%20d%26rsquo%3Baccumulation%20de%20glace

DRIVE - Stroke phase during which the rower presses with his or her legs against the foot stretchers and pulls on the oar(s) to force the blade through the water and propel the boat. The drive phase is a coordinated full-body movement using the legs back and arms. The rower remains upright during the first half of the drive. Midway through, after the knees come down, the rower leans back and pulls the oar(s) in with his or her arms. Ideal technique keeps the blade(s) just below the surface of the water and accelerates smoothly from start to finish. 5, record 13, English, - drive

Impacts at the valve closing are sometimes referred to as valve hammer and can result in damage to the sealing surfaces.
