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]
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 ...
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]
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.
IACS may refer to: Indian Association for the Cultivation of Science; Industrial Automation and Control Systems are also referred to as Industrial control systems; Innovation Academy Charter School; Integrated Administration and Control System; International Annealed Copper Standard, a unit of electrical conductivity
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.
The American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) is an American maritime classification society established in 1862. [1] Its stated mission is to promote the security of life, property, and the natural environment, primarily through the development and verification of standards for the design, construction and operational maintenance of marine and offshore assets.
