Automation protects against both unsafe conditions and human errors. It is the key to safety in the nuclear power industry. This is the message of this book, written by Béla Lipták, a consultant with more than 50 years' experience in automation and industrial safety.After reviewing...
Industrial automation systems have the potential to be one of the most value-generating vehicles available to industrial companies. Unfortunately, not all managers of industrial companies perceive automation systems that way and few industrial automation systems actually...
"The best way to approach risk management in automation is to treat such projects as a very specialized type of construction project." So observes author Mark Voigtmann in the opening pages of this concise but insightful book which sets as its goal nothing less than bridging the gap between...
This SAE Information Report develops a concept of operations (ConOps) to evaluate a cooperative driving automation (CDA) Feature for occluded pedestrian collision avoidance using perception status sharing. It provides a test procedure to evaluate this CDA Feature, which is suitable for...
This document describes a systematic and rigorous process to: (1) identify and evaluate standard names and definitions for driving automation system features, and (2) identify a "user vocabulary" of terms and descriptions that [human] drivers use to describe driving automation system...
This report provides the process for developing a flexible test framework to support the creation of system-level cooperative driving automation (CDA) Feature test procedures, which are intended to be objective, repeatable, and transparent, and enable collaborative testing of the Feature....
5.1 Hydroxyl is an important functional group and knowledge of its content is required in many intermediate and end use applications. This test method is for the determination of primary and secondary hydroxyl groups and can be used for the assay of compounds containing them. 5.2 This test method...
This document provides requirements and guidance for laser proponents and aviation authorities to determine the criteria that laser hazard control measures shall meet for the operation of an outdoor laser system in navigable airspace. This document has been developed to be used for a wide range of...
1.1 This terminology covers terms associated with robotic, automation, and autonomous systems. By providing a common and consistent lexicon, the purpose of this terminology is to facilitate communication between individuals who may be involved in the research, design, deployment, and use of...
5.1 The procedures described in this practice have proven utility in the inspecting (1) monolithic polymer matrix composites (laminates) for bulk defects, (2) metals for corrosion during the service life of the part of interest, (3) thickness checks, (4) adhesive bonding of metals, composites, and...
5.1 This test method is intended for use as a rapid quality control, acceptance, and assessment test. Results are obtained in five to fifteen minutes on most materials. Since the instrument parameters are adjusted to produce the same results as Test Method D2369, which takes over one hour to run,...
1 Scope and normative references This clause of Part 1 is applicable except as follows: Replacement: In general, this part of IEC 60730 applies to energy regulators for use in, on, or in association with equipment, including energy regulators for heating, air conditioning and similar applications....
Replacement: This part of IEC 60730 applies to electrically operated water valves for use in, on or in association with equipment for household and similar use, including heating, air-conditioning and similar applications. The equipment can use electricity, gas, oil, solid fuel, solar thermal...
5.1 The procedures described in this practice have proven utility in the inspecting (1) monolithic polymer matrix composites for bulk defects, (2) metals for corrosion during the service life of the part of interest, (3) thickness checks, (4) adhesive bonding of metals, composites, and sandwich...
1.1 These requirements apply to: a) Central-stations providing Central-Station Fire-Alarm Service and that may monitor Remote Supervising Station System type fire-alarm systems (OBJ2) as described in the National Fire Alarm and Signaling Code, NFPA 72; b) Central-station burglar-alarm systems...
1.1 These requirements cover a receptacle with integral switching means rated 600 V or less, used in ordinary locations and intended for connection to a branch circuit in accordance with the National Electrical Code, NFPA 70. A receptacle with integral switching means that is intended for energy...
