'Active tooling units' are devices for applying motive power, process energy or sensing to a workpiece.
Substances or mixtures that react chemically to release energy required for their intended application. "Explosives", "pyrotechnics" and "propellants" are subclasses of energetic materials.
Solid, liquid or gaseous substances or mixtures of substances which, in their application as primary, booster, or main charges in warheads, demolition and other applications, are required to detonate.
Carriers (e.g. plasmid or virus) used to introduce genetic material into host cells.
Include:
Continuous monofilaments;
Continuous yarns and rovings;
Tapes, fabrics, random mats and braids;
Chopped fibres, staple fibres and coherent fibre blankets;
Whiskers, either monocrystalline or polycrystalline, of any length;
Aromatic polyamide pulp.
Electrostatically focused tubes, employing input and output fibre optic or glass face plates, multi-alkali photocathodes (S-20 or S-25), but not microchannel plate amplifiers.
An electrochemical device that converts chemical energy directly into Direct Current (DC) electricity by consuming fuel from an external source.
This means "technology" or "software" which has been made available without restrictions upon its further dissemination.
An assembly of components which produce both spatially and temporally coherent light that is amplified by stimulated emission of radiation.
A collection of technical information, reference to which may enhance the performance of relevant systems, equipment or components.
Balloons and airships that rely on hot air or on lighter-than-air gases such as helium or hydrogen for their lift.
Includes the items within or attached directly to the reactor vessel, the equipment which controls the level of power in the core, and the components which normally contain or come into direct contact with or control the primary coolant of the reactor core.
Speciality chemicals used in the manufacture of explosives.
Means all production stages, such as: product engineering, manufacture, integration, assembly (mounting), inspection, testing, quality assurance.
Substances or mixtures that react chemically to produce large volumes of hot gases at controlled rates to perform mechanical work.
Mixtures of solid or liquid fuels and oxidizers which, when ignited, undergo an energetic chemical reaction at a controlled rate intended to produce specific time delays, or quantities of heat, noise, smoke, visible light or infrared radiation. Pyrophorics are a subclass of pyrotechnics, which contain no oxidizers but ignite spontaneously on contact with air.
As applied to "technology", refers to only that portion of "technology" which is peculiarly responsible for achieving or exceeding the controlled performance levels, characteristics or functions. Such "required" "technology" may be shared by different products.
Substances which, under the expected conditions of use for riot control purposes, produce rapidly in humans sensory irritation or disabling physical effects which disappear within a short time following termination of exposure. (Tear gases are a subset of "riot control agents".)
A manipulation mechanism, which may be of the continuous path or of the point-to-point variety, may use sensors, and has all the following characteristics:
Is multifunctional;
Is capable of positioning or orienting material, parts, tools or special devices through variable movements in three-dimensional space;
Incorporates three or more closed or open loop servo-devices which may include stepping motors; and
Has "user-accessible programmability" by means of the teach/playback method or by means of an electronic computer which may be a programmable logic controller, i.e. without mechanical intervention.
Manipulation mechanisms which are only manually/teleoperator controllable;
Fixed sequence manipulation mechanisms which are automated moving devices, operating according to mechanically fixed programmed motions. The programme is mechanically limited by fixed stops, such as pins or cams. The sequence of motions and the selection of paths or angles are not variable or changeable by mechanical, electronic or electrical means;
Mechanically controlled variable sequence manipulation mechanisms which are automated moving devices, operating according to mechanically fixed programmed motions. The programme is mechanically limited by fixed, but adjustable, stops, such as pins or cams. The sequence of motions and the selection of paths or angles are variable within the fixed programme pattern. Variations or modifications of the programme pattern (e.g. changes of pins or exchanges of cams) in one or more motion axes are accomplished only through mechanical operations;
Non-servo-controlled variable sequence manipulation mechanisms which are automated moving devices, operating according to mechanically fixed programmed motions. The programme is variable but the sequence proceeds only by the binary signal from mechanically fixed electrical binary devices or adjustable stops;
Stacker cranes defined as Cartesian coordinate manipulator systems manufactured as an integral part of a vertical array of storage bins and designed to access the contents of those bins for storage or retrieval.
A collection of one or more "programmes" or "microprogrammes" fixed in any tangible medium of expression.
Active and passive satellites and space probes.
Designed, manufactured, or qualified through successful testing, for operation at altitudes greater than 100 km above the surface of the Earth.
Refers to materials, (i.e. metals, alloys or compounds) which can lose all electrical resistance (i.e. which can attain infinite electrical conductivity and carry very large electrical currents without Joule heating).
"Critical temperature" (sometimes referred to as the transition temperature) of a specific "superconductive" material is the temperature at which the material loses all resistance to the flow of direct electrical current.
The "superconductive" state of a material is individually characterised by a "critical temperature", a critical magnetic field, which is a function of temperature, and a critical current density which is, however, a function of both magnetic field and temperature.
Specific information necessary for the "development", "production" or "use" of a product. The information takes the form of 'technical data' or 'technical assistance'. Controlled “technology” for the EU Common Military List is specified in ML22.
Any "aircraft" capable of initiating flight and sustaining controlled flight and navigation without any human presence on board.
Operation, installation (including on-site installation), maintenance (checking), repair, overhaul and refurbishing.
