Guided Motor Vehicle Standards

The new edition features: updated terminology in descriptions; and updated illustrations to comply with today's Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD), developed by the USDOT/Federal Highway Administration. Softcover, 38 pages, 2004

1. SCOPE: This standard applies to all Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV) systems purchased by Ford Motor Company.

The provisions of this chapter governing width, height, length, permissible loads, and performance limits should apply to vehicles serving in regular operation, as defined in Chapter 1. Vehicles operated under the terms of special permits are covered in Chapter 4.

Surface Guided Radiation Therapy provides a comprehensive overview of optical surface image guidance systems for radiation therapy. It serves as an introductory teaching resource for students and trainees, and a valuable reference for medical physicists, physicians, radiation therapists, and...

This book provides a guide to the control of AC motors with a focus on its application to electric vehicles (EV). It describes the rotating magnetic flux, based on which dynamic equations are derived. The text not only deals with the induction motor, but covers the...

Preface This book presents key image-guided radiation treatment (IGRT) technologies for external beam radiotherapy and caps a multidecade phase of technology development in the realm of conformal, customized radiation treatment. This development phase has been somewhat brief and vigorous,...

This Standard specifies non-petroleum base brake fluids (hereafter referred to as brake fluids) used for motor vehicles. NOTE: The International Standards corresponding to this Standard and the symbol of degree of correspondence are as follows. ISO 3871: 2000 Road...

Preface The use of acoustic energy for thermal ablation is a relatively old idea. Despite serious attempts by several investigators to develop focused ultrasound surgery into an effective ablative therapy, it has been in the incubation stage as a noninvasive surgical method for a long time. In the...

A classroom-tested introduction to integrated and fiber optics This text offers an in-depth treatment of integrated and fiber optics, providing graduate students, engineers, and scientists with a solid foundation of the principles, capabilities, uses, and limitations of guided-wave optic...

This SAE Recommended Practice is intended as a guide toward standard practice and is subject to change to keep pace with experience and technical advances. This document establishes performance requirements for headlamps.

PREFACE This manual of practice was prepared by the Task Committee on Pilot Tube and Other Guided Boring Methods of the ASCE Committee on Trenchless Installation of Pipelines (TIPS), as part of the Utility Engineering & Surveying Institute (UESI). The manual describes the current pilot tube...

The book reviews developments in the following fields: control theory; control design; Laplace transform; frequency response methods; mathematical modelling; nonlinear systems; stability; discrete time control systems; digital control system; multivariable linear systems; state space approach;...

This specification covers one type of a full-tracked, self-propelled, tactical missile loader for loading and unloading Hawk Guided Missiles onto and from Hawk Missile System Launchers and Pallets.
