In certain applications, it is not desirable or feasible to mount a machine directly on vibration isolators. Instead, the machine is attached to a relatively heavy and rigid block(usually made of concrete), which is then supported by suitable isolators. The use of such a massive block(called an inertia block or reaction mass) is desirable for the following reasons : 1. If a machine(such as a diesel engine, forging hammer, or vibration testing machine) generates relatively large forces during its operation, the overall movements of the machine on its isolation system tends to become excessive unless its effective mass is subtantially increased. Rigidly attaching the machine to an inertia block and mounting the inertia block on isolators can achieve this increase in effective mass.  1, fiche 2, Anglais, - inertia%20block

The Active Rack Isolation System(ARIS) is designed to isolate payload racks from vibration such that the on-rack environment will meet the system vibratory specifications... The ARIS is an active electromechanical damping system attached to an ISPR [International Standard Payload Rack] that senses the vibratory environment with accelerometers, then damps it by introducing a compensating force. The ARIS components reside both inside and outside the ISPR.  2, fiche 3, Anglais, - active%20rack%20isolation%20system

In a collaborative project with the Canadian Space Agency, two vibration isolation systems for zero-g environments have been developed-the Motion Isolation Mount(MIM) for orbital flights and the Large Motion Isolation Mount(LMIM) for parabolic flights. The approach taken for MIM has been to develop a mechanism having two parts : a stator attached to the structure and a payload-carrying flotor, with the only coupling between the two components being a flexible umbilical carrying signals and power to the flotor. The flotor is actively magnetically levitated by a set of wide-gap voice coil actuators. Its position relative to the stator is sensed by an optical position sensor while its absolute acceleration is sensed by an inertial accelerometer system. A digital controller uses the sensed information to compute actuator currents based on a control law that regulates acceleration and steady-state position to zero. The weak coupling between stator and flotor and the insensitivity of actuator force with position makes such a system extremely effective for vibration isolation...  2, fiche 5, Anglais, - motion%20isolation%20mount

... the United States and Russian programs have extensively used a number of countermeasures to maintain the crew’s health and fitness, the premise that maintaining crew fitness results significantly in reducing the adverse effects of prolonged exposure to a microgravity environment. These effects vary from the onset of orthostatic intolerance following short-term space flight to the development of bone demineralization following long-term space flight. One thing is clear and that is the variable gravitational fields and the numerous translations found during space travel underscore the need to be prepared for all contingencies.  2, fiche 6, Anglais, - countermeasure

There are many ways of rendering the concept of "profilé" in English. If the width of the profile changes from one spot on the racquet to another, then the term "beam" is preferred, e.g. tapered beam design for the all round game. If one wants to specify that the beam is narrow, regular or conventional (i.e. not a wide-body), the term "frame", as in "narrow frame" or "conventional-width frame" is preferred. When one speaks of a "conventional frame", one implies that the profile or beam is constant, straight and narrow. Related terms: shaft, frame cross section.  1, fiche 9, Anglais, - frame%20profile
