The [Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation] selected five indicators for the SII [social inclusion index] dwelling satisfaction, neighbourhood satisfaction, satisfaction with feeling part of the community, sense of safety and economic hardship. A single-factor SII structure based on these five selected items indicated a good fit of the model to the data. In other words, the findings suggested that dwelling and neighbourhood satisfaction, feeling part of the community, sense of safety, and economic hardship are related in a way that represents a common underlying construct, although the extent to which this construct measures social inclusion warrants further research. 1, record 2, English, - good%20fit%20of%20the%20model

Une structure d'IIS à un seul facteur fondée sur ces cinq éléments sélectionnés semble indiquer une bonne adéquation du modèle aux données. En d'autres termes, les résultats donnent à penser que la satisfaction à l'égard du logement et du quartier, le sentiment d'appartenance à la communauté, le sentiment de sécurité et le confort économique sont associés de telle sorte qu'ils représentent un concept commun sous-jacent, même si le degré auquel ce concept mesure l'inclusion sociale nécessite des recherches plus approfondies. 1, record 2, French, - bonne%20ad%C3%A9quation%20du%20mod%C3%A8le

Laser Scintillometers. The fluctuations in atmospheric index of refraction is related to the temperature structure of the air. These index fluctuations cause deflections of light(for example, mirages) and these fluctuations can be examined by laser light travelling over a horizontal path. The resulting intensity of fluctuations can be analysed for a heat flux which could cause those index variations. A difficulty with the system is the fluctuations caused by mechanical turbulence such as wind may interfere with the thermal measurement. The system is inexpensive and may prove quite reliable. 1, record 14, English, - laser%20scintillometer

A numerical quantity used as an index to characterize the type of flow in a hydraulic structure in which elastic forces, in conjunction with the resisting force of inertia, influence the motion of the liquid. It is the ratio of inertia forces to elastic forces. It is equal to a characteristic velocity of the system, which may be the mean, surface, or maximum velocity, divided by the kinematic elasticity of the liquid; all expressed in consistent units in order that the combinations will be dimensionless. The number is useful in the study of water hammer. 2, record 17, English, - Cauchy%26rsquo%3Bs%20number
