With the challenging snow and ice landscapes of Canada in mind, Joseph-Armand Bombardier developed 7 and 12 passenger half-track autoneiges in the 1930s, starting what would become eventually the Bombardier industrial conglomerate. The Bombardier half-tracks had tracks for propulsion in the back and skis for steering in the front. The skis could be replaced by wheels in the summer, but this was not very common. 3, record 13, English, - snowmobile

Face aux problèmes du transport hivernal, ce dernier [Joseph-Armand Bombardier] réussit en 1937 la mise au point d’un véhicule à chenille, soit l’autoneige, un B-7 communément appelé snowmobile, capable de circuler sur la neige et de transporter sept passagers. En même temps, Joseph-Armand Bombardier entreprend la commercialisation de ce véhicule; la Deuxième Guerre mondiale entraîne la suspension de sa production. 5, record 13, French, - autoneige

Perhaps the most important farm implement used by the early settlers was the animal drawn plough. It was used to dig the soil and make it softer and better for the crops to grow. Most ploughs were pulled by teams of horses or oxen and were equipped with a ploughshare for cutting a furrow, a blade or coulter for forming the walls of the furrow and a mould board to shape the furrow. 2, record 16, English, - animal%2Ddrawn%20plough

Plusieurs causes peuvent produire des failles de traction. Un massif, comprimé dans tous les sens et soumis à une faille de compression, peut être obligé de glisser suivant une pente supérieure à son angle de frottement interne. Dans ce cas, la pesanteur peut faire glisser la partie supérieure du massif, produisant une faille de traction. Il peut également y avoir entraînement. Un massif en mouvement peut rencontrer en un certain endroit une résistance à l'avancement très grande, par frottement par exemple, et qui peut être telle qu'elle arrête le mouvement. Si la couche de sol située en dessous est assez plastique, il y a entraînement et glissement, donc faille de traction. 1, record 17, French, - faille%20de%20traction
