The Powered Core Drive. ... the authors measured the torque exerted by the chucks of a lathe, and the efficiency of various chuck designs. They also studied the friction between rubber rollers (of the back-up roll type) and the surface of a log; they found that a powered roll could provide considerable peripheral torque to assist that exerted by the chucks. [An] American manufacturer is now offering a lathe with a powered core drive which can reduce an 8-foot (2.4 m) core to a 3 1/2 inch (9 cm) diameter. 1, record 1, English, - powered%20core%20drive

Le rouleau aide-griffes. Au cours d’une étude au Laboratoire des produits forestiers des États-Unis, on a mesuré le moment(force de torsion) exercé par les griffes de la dérouleuse ainsi que l'efficacité de divers modèles de griffes. On a aussi mesuré le frottement entre des rouleaux antiflexion motorisés en caoutchouc et la bille que l'on déroule. On a trouvé que de tels rouleaux aident beaucoup les griffes à faire tourner la bille et constamment dérouler cette dernière à son plus petit diamètre possible. [Un] manufacturier américain offre maintenant sur le marché une dérouleuse équipée d’un «rouleau aide-griffes». 1, record 1, French, - rouleau%20aide%2Dgriffes

A test to determine the shearing strength of cohesive soils in situ. The appliance consists of four blades projecting from a shaft at 90° intervals, and as these are rotated in the ground they generate a cylinder of soil thus determining the unit shearing strength of the mass in its natural environment. A light drill is first used to reach the depth required and the vane then driven into the deposit. 4, record 2, English, - vane%20test

Le scissomètre [...] est constitué d’un moulinet à quatre pales en croix, foncé dans le sol à l'aide d’un train de tubes [...] Arrivé à la profondeur d’essai désirée, le fonçage est arrêté et l'on procède à l'essai proprement dit. Celui-ci consiste à entraîner le moulinet en rotation par l'intermédiaire d’un train de tiges tournant sans frottement dans le train de tubes, et à mesurer le moment résistant [...] correspondant. [...] L'interprétation de l'essai au scissomètre se fait en supposant que le cisaillement du sol s’effectue sur la surface du cylindre circonscrit au moulinet [...] 4, record 2, French, - essai%20au%20scissom%C3%A8tre

A rash occurring characteristically in patients with systemic onset juvenile rheumatoid arthritis. It consists of discrete or confluent macular or maculopapular red or salmon-pink, usually non-pruritic lesions, but also found on the face and extremities. The rash may be evanescent, appearing primarily with fever. There may be a positive Koebner phenomenon (rash precipitated promptly by stroking or irritating skin). 1, record 3, English, - juvenile%20rheumatoid%20arthritis%20rash

L'éruption cutanée [dans la maladie de Still] est faite de macules ou de maculopapules de 2 à 10 mm de diamètre, rose saumon, avec parfois un halo périphérique pâle. Par endroits on peut observer une confluence des macules en placards ayant quelquefois un centre clair. Dans environ 5 pour cent des cas l'éruption est prurigineuse. Elle siège surtout au tronc, au cou, à la racine des membres mais peut intéresser aussi la face et les extrémités. Elle est quelquefois persistante mais souvent elle est fugace, n’ apparaissant qu'au moment des pics fébriles. On peut la faire apparaître par frottement, grattage(phénomène de Köbner) ou bain chaud. 3, record 3, French, - %C3%A9ryth%C3%A8me%20rose%20vermillon
