  2. International Association of Classification Societies - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Association...

    IACS is a non-commercial, technical collaboration association to establish, review, develop, and promote minimum technical requirements in relation to the design, construction, maintenance and survey of ships and other marine related facilities and to assist international regulatory bodies in the development and interpretation of statutory regulations to help ensure their universal and uniform ...

  3. International Annealed Copper Standard - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Annealed...

    The standard is most often used as a comparative property in the specification of the conductivity of other metals. For example, the conductivity of a particular grade of titanium may be specified as 1.2 % IACS, meaning that its electrical conductivity is 1.2 % of the copper specified as the IACS standard. [2]

  4. Structural rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_rule

    A logic without any of the above structural rules would interpret the sides of a sequent as pure sequences; with exchange, they can be considered to be multisets; and with both contraction and exchange they can be considered to be sets. These are not the only possible structural rules. A famous structural rule is known as cut. [1]

  5. Oxygen-free copper - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen-free_copper

    Oxygen-free copper is typically specified according to the ASTM/UNS database. [3] The UNS database includes many different compositions of high conductivity electrical copper. Of these, three are widely used and two are considered oxygen-free: C10100 – also known as oxygen-free electronic (OFE). This is a 99.99% pure copper with 0.0005% ...

  6. Ship classification society - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ship_classification_society

    A full-time bureaucracy of surveyors (inspectors) and support personnel was put in place. Similar developments were taking place in the other major maritime nations. The adoption of common rules for ship construction by Norwegian insurance societies in the late 1850s led to the establishment of Det Norske Veritas (DNV) in 1864.

  7. Torrent file - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torrent_file

    A small torrent file is created to represent a file or folder to be shared. The torrent file acts as the key to initiating downloading of the actual content. Someone interested in receiving the shared file or folder first obtains the corresponding torrent file, either by directly downloading it or by using a magnet link. The user then opens ...

  8. Rogue wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rogue_wave

    However, most new ships are built to the standards of the 12 members of the International Association of Classification Societies, which implemented two sets of common structural rules - one for oil tankers and one for bulk carriers, in 2006. These were later harmonised into a single set of rules.

  9. Polar Class - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polar_Class

    The first IACS Polar Class rules were published in 2007. [ 3 ] Prior to the development of the unified requirements, each classification society had their own set of ice class rules ranging from Baltic ice classes intended for operation in first-year ice to higher vessel categories, including icebreakers, intended for operations in polar waters.
