In 1740 the catastrophic result of Anson's circumnavigation attracted much attention in Europe ; out of 1900 men, 1400 had died, most of them allegedly from having contracted scurvy.

Safety-critical systems are commonly required to permit no single event or component failure to result in a catastrophic failure mode.

An important result of this debate and others was the re-clarification that, while the same principles operate in geologic time, catastrophic events that are infrequent on human time-scales can have important consequences in geologic history.

Like mechanical resonance, acoustic resonance can result in catastrophic failure of the object at resonance.

Ghost towns may result when the single activity or resource that created a boomtown ( e. g., nearby mine, mill or resort ) is depleted or the resource economy undergoes a " bust " ( e. g., catastrophic resource price collapse ).

If the containment fields ever fail, the subsequent interaction of the antimatter fuel with the container walls would result in a catastrophic release of energy, with the resultant explosion capable of utterly destroying the ship.

If the head hits the disk's surface, a catastrophic head crash can result.

In some cases, the result was not anything that could be identified as neoliberalism, often with catastrophic results for the poor.

Both English perry making, and the orchards that supplied it, suffered a catastrophic decline in the second half of the 20th century as a result of changing tastes and agricultural practices ( in South Gloucestershire alone, an estimated 90 % of orchards were lost in the last 75 years ).

This is thermal runaway, a form of positive feedback, and the result can be melting of the facet, known as catastrophic optical damage, or COD.

Earth's history was viewed as the result of an accumulation of catastrophic events over a relatively short time period, before the depth of geological time was appreciated.

In April 1789, however, twelve months after the departure from Botany Bay by the French expedition led by Jean-François de Galaup, comte de Lapérouse, a catastrophic epidemic of smallpox ( or possibly chicken pox ) spread through the Eora people and surrounding groups, with the result that local Aborigines died in their hundreds, and bodies could be seen in the water in Sydney Harbour and lying on beaches and in adjacent caves.

As the MOV heats up, it may degrade further, causing a catastrophic failure that can result in a small explosion or fire, if the line current is not otherwise limited.

The creation of multiple populations will decrease the risk that catastrophic events will result in species extinction.

It was the result of the catastrophic failure of the South Fork Dam situated upstream of the town of Johnstown, Pennsylvania, USA, made worse by several days of extremely heavy rainfall.

Stress responses are sometimes a result of mental disorders such as post-traumatic stress disorder, in which the individual shows a stress response when remembering a past trauma, and panic disorder, in which the stress response is activated by the catastrophic misinterpretations of bodily sensations.

In a report filed in November 2008, the U. S. Federal Emergency Management Agency warned that a serious earthquake in the New Madrid Seismic Zone could result in " the highest economic losses due to a natural disaster in the United States ," further predicting " widespread and catastrophic " damage across Alabama, Arkansas, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Mississippi, Missouri, and particularly Tennessee, where a 7. 7 magnitude quake or greater would cause damage to tens of thousands of structures affecting water distribution, transportation systems, and other vital infrastructure.

Ocean water dumped into a lake as the result of a single catastrophic event, as suggested above, would contain an inadequate amount of dissolved minerals to produce, when evaporated, the vast quantities of salts and other evaporites found in the salt lakes, flats, and pans cited as evidence of a mega-tsunami by this hypothesis.

While the eventual failure may be catastrophic, most mechanical failures result from gradual wear and there are usually certain indications that failure is imminent.

Because actual lamps are not designed to handle this much power, this would result in catastrophic failure.

In a two-stroke engine this can be a catastrophic situation: as many two stroke engines depend on a fuel / oil mixture for lubrication, a shortage of fuel to the engine would result in a shortage of oil in the cylinders, and the pistons would seize after a very short time causing extensive engine damage.

The worst problem met in air-cooled aircraft engines was the so called " Shock cooling ", when the airplane entered in a dive after climbing or levelled flight with throttle opened, with the engine under no-load while the airplane dives generating less heat, and the flow of air that cools the engine is increased, a catastrophic engine failure may result as different parts of engine have different temperatures, and thus different thermal expansions.

Failure to replace the belt can result in complete breakdown or catastrophic engine failure, especially in interference engines.

In a report filed in November 2008, The U. S. Federal Emergency Management Agency warned that a serious earthquake in the New Madrid Seismic Zone could result in " the highest economic losses due to a natural disaster in the United States ," further predicting " widespread and catastrophic " damage across Alabama, Arkansas, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Mississippi, Missouri, Oklahoma, Texas, and particularly Tennessee, where a 7. 7 magnitude quake or greater would cause damage to tens of thousands of structures affecting water distribution, transportation systems, and other vital infrastructure.
