Command and control tystems are widely used for military applications, air transport, space tystems control, and ship control. Similar systems are used in nuclear power plants, chemical and petrol chemical plant. In modem practice they typically involve ... 

Smaller amounts of phosphoms, or elemental phosphoms-containing materials, are also shipped in 115-L (30-gal) dmms that are DOT regulated (U.S. DOT lAl or 1A2 classification) and have thick shells and special gaskets and fittings for protection. Quantities up to 0.5 kg (1 lb) are allowed for shipping in two hermetically sealed (soldered), nested cans inside a wooden box where the empty space is filled with vermiculite (U.S. DOT 4C1, 4C2, 4D, or 4F classification). AH air transportation of elemental P, both U.S. and international, was prohibited beginning in 1992. 

The following example illustrates some of these features. In a clean room with automated transporting and processing facilities, there are two quality classes of air. The space close to the small items under processing and the treating facilities should be exposed only to air of class A quality (very low contaminant level) and the rest of the room air is class B quality (normal standard). Figures 11.2 and 11.3 (see color insert) represent two out of a large number of parameter studies.

For road (and partially also railway, boat and air) transport, piston combustion engines are used most frequently. In these the chemical energy of the fuel is changed directly in the combustion space of the engine into thermal energy, which is converted by the engine into mechanical work. 

Advanced materials are undoubtedly one of the pillars on which the aerospace industry rests, as they can meet the pressing demands of designers for high performance in extreme environments. Material technology is the driving force in the development of space exploration (launchers, satellites, hypersonic vehicles), civil air transportation and military air defence, and its rapid evolution is as important as the advances in computer science or electronics, though less publicised. 

GPTRs are largely involved in the production of mechanical energy for road, river, sea, air and space transport, as well as for the production of electricity by fixed turbines (Table 3a). 

Polymers are common materials on land, sea, air, and space. Almost all cars, buses, light trucks, trailers, motorcycles, trains, boats, airplanes, and space shuttles contain plastics. POCs are found in the bumpers, fenders, doors, headlights, and wheel covers of automobiles, and their incorporation has reduced vehicle weight by approximately 250 pounds. The weight reduction also reduces fuel consumption and lowers the carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. The advantages of using POCs over conventional materials in transport industry are the following ...

Although limited in the applicability for public sector safety and health professionals, Title II of the ADA prohibits discrimination in the area of ground transportation, including buses, taxis, trains, and limousines. Air transportation is excluded from the ADA but is covered under the Air Carriers Access Act."" Covered organizations may be affected in the purchasing or leasing of new vehicles and in other areas, such as the transfer of disabled individuals to the hospital or other facilities. Title 11 requires covered public entities to make sure that new vehicles are accessible to and usable by the qualified individual, including individuals in wheelchairs. Thus, vehicles must be equipped with lifts, ramps, wheelchair space, and other modifications unless the...
