LOCATION CRACK [6 fiches]

Fiche 1 2016-03-07

Anglais

Subject field(s)
  • Horse Racing and Equestrian Sports
  • Horse Husbandry
  • Veterinary Medicine
DEF

Crack running downward the hoof, [which] will cause lameness if deep enough to touch the laminae.

CONT

Sand cracks, at the toe or on the quarter, are due to extreme dryness of the walls. This happens when the horse has been in the wet for a long time, followed by a long dry period.

OBS

It may be referred to according to its location : toe, quarter, heel or bar(sand) crack.

Fiche 2 2012-02-03

Anglais

Subject field(s)
  • The Lungs
  • Occupational Health and Safety
  • Mining Dangers and Mine Safety
DEF

An occupational disease of coal workers resulting from deposition of coal dust in the lungs.

OBS

Black lung disease is the common name for coal workers’ pneumoconiosis (CWP) or anthracosis, a lung disease of older workers in the coal industry, caused by inhalation, over many years, of small amounts of coal dust.

OBS

anthracosis : A histological term describing the accumulation of black pigment in lung tissue or in other organs. In the lung the accumulation often appears as macular lesions, usually in a centrilobular location, along the walls of bronchioles, but also along interlobular septa or in the subpleural space. This pigment is mainly composed of carbonaceous material and may originate from cigarette smoke(or other smoked drugs, such as crack cocaine), atmospheric pollution, residential exposure to wood(or biomass) smoke or occupational exposure to carbon-containing dusts, such as diesel exhaust, soot, fly ash, carbon black, graphite and coal. Thus a more or less marked degree of anthracosis may be found in nonsmoking urban residents from heavily polluted areas or in inhabitants(often females) of poor countries with a cold climate(so-called ’hut lung’). Anthracosis is only rarely associated with overt pulmonary disease, except after prolonged, heavy, usually occupational exposure, when the condition is preferably labelled as a pneumoconiosis, e. g. graphite pneumoconiosis(graphitosis) or coal workers pneumoconiosis. The latter pneumoconiosis is often called anthracosilicosis(particularly in continental Europe), because this pneumoconiosis has been considered to be caused predominantly by the silica content of coal dust. While this may be true in many instances, the use of anthracosilicosis to indicate coal worker's pneumoconiosis is probably not entirely appropriate, because the pathology of coal workers pneumoconiosis is different from that of silicosis.

OBS

black phthisis; colliers’ phtisis: obsolete.

OBS

bituminosis; melanedema; miners’ asthma: obsolete and incorrect.

Français

Domaine(s)
  • Poumons
  • Santé et sécurité au travail
  • Exploitation minière (dangers et sécurité)
DEF

Pneumoconiose due à une infiltration massive de poussières de charbon chez des individus exposés professionnellement à une atmosphère très polluée.

OBS

L'existence d'anthracose pure est controversée. Il semble qu'il s'agisse plus souvent d'une anthracosilicose, la silice entrant en plus ou moins grande quantité dans la composition de la poussière de charbon.

OBS

Comparer avec «anthracose» et avec «anthracosilicose».

Espagnol

Campo(s) temático(s)
  • Pulmones
  • Salud y seguridad en el trabajo
  • Explotación minera (peligros y seguridad)
OBS

neumoconiosis: es un proceso respiratorio crónico, de marcha tórpida, que consiste en una fibrosis pulmonar linfoectásica consecutiva a la inhalación de diversas clases de polvos, aspirados durante años en el ejercicio de distintas profesiones (molineros, mineros, picapedreros, etc.)

OBS

La primera [neumoconiosis producida por polvos inorgánicos] conocida fue la antracosis, tan frecuente entre los mineros de carbón. Hoy se sabe que no es producida por el polvo de carbón, sino por el cuarzo mezclado con él, o sea que en realidad es una silicosis

OBS

artículo 153. 12. antracosis. Mineros (de las minas de carbón), carboneros, herreros, soldadores, forjadores, fundidores, fogoneros, deshollinadores y demás trabajadores expuestos a inhalación de polvos de carbón de hulla, grafito y antracita.

Fiche 3 2007-10-18

Anglais

Subject field(s)
  • Atmospheric, Climatic and Meteorological Phenomena
CONT

Propagation is the spread of a crack in a weak layer from an initial fracture location. A fracture can propagate at about the speed of sound, which makes it possible for huge slabs of snow to release from a mountainside instantaneously.

CONT

The fracture may propagate across the entire slope. [Example approved by the Avalanche Bulletin Terminology Standardization Committee.]

OBS

propagate: term officially approved by the Avalanche Bulletin Terminology Standardization Committee.

Français

Domaine(s)
  • Phénomènes météorologiques, climatiques et atmosphériques
CONT

La cassure risque de se propager sur toute la pente. [Exemple entériné par le Comité d'uniformisation de la terminologie des bulletins d'avalanche.]

OBS

se propager : terme uniformisé par le Comité d'uniformisation de la terminologie des bulletins d'avalanche.

Fiche 4 2007-10-18

Anglais

Subject field(s)
  • Atmospheric, Climatic and Meteorological Phenomena
DEF

The spreading of a crack or fracture within a weak layer or slab.

CONT

Propagation is the spread of a crack in a weak layer from an initial fracture location. A fracture can propagate at about the speed of sound, which makes it possible for huge slabs of snow to release from a mountainside instantaneously. The propagation potential of a particular slab and weak layer dictates how large an avalanche may become once triggered, and also determines if it's possible to trigger avalanches from flatter terrain connected to steeper slopes.

CONT

Current snowpack conditions favour wide propagation. [Example approved by the Avalanche Bulletin Terminology Standardization Committee.]

OBS

propagation: term officially approved by the Avalanche Bulletin Terminology Standardization Committee.

Français

Domaine(s)
  • Phénomènes météorologiques, climatiques et atmosphériques
CONT

L'état actuel du manteau neigeux favorise des propagations de grande étendue. [Exemple entériné par le Comité d'uniformisation de la terminologie des bulletins d'avalanche.]

OBS

propagation : terme uniformisé par le Comité d'uniformisation de la terminologie des bulletins d'avalanche.

PHR

Propagation d'une fracture.

Anglais

Subject field(s)
  • Effects of Pollution

DEF

A usually asymptomatic form of pneumoconiosis caused by deposition of coal dust in the lungs [which] is present in most urban dwellers.

OBS

anthracosis : A histological term describing the accumulation of black pigment in lung tissue or in other organs. In the lung the accumulation often appears as macular lesions, usually in a centrilobular location, along the walls of bronchioles, but also along interlobular septa or in the subpleural space.

Compare with "pneumoconiosis of coal workers" and "anthracosilicosis."
