  2. HAZMAT Class 4 Flammable solids - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HAZMAT_Class_4_Flammable...

    Division 4.1: Flammable Solid . Flammable solids are any of the following four types of materials: Desensitized Explosives: explosives that, when dry, are Explosives of Class 1 other than those of compatibility group A, which are wetted with sufficient water, alcohol, or plasticizer to suppress explosive properties; and are specifically authorized by name either in the 49CFR 172.101 Table or ...

    Fujitec Singapore Corp. was established in 1988, specializing in the manufacture, installation and service of lifts/elevators, escalators and moving walkways/travellators. The company has operational headquarters located in the Americas, Japan, South Asia, East Asia and Europe and a network of 11 manufacturing facilities and several sales ...

  4. Chobham armour - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chobham_armour

    Ceramic tiles have a multiple hit capability problem in that they cannot sustain successive impacts without quickly losing much of their protective value. [6] To minimise the effects of this the tiles are made as small as possible, but the matrix elements have a minimal practical thickness of about 25 mm (approximately one inch), and the ratio of coverage provided by tiles would become ...

  5. Reactive armour - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reactive_armour

    Reactive armour is a type of vehicle armour used in protecting vehicles, especially modern tanks, against shaped charges and hardened kinetic energy penetrators. The most common type is explosive reactive armour (ERA), but variants include self-limiting explosive reactive armour (SLERA), non-energetic reactive armour (NERA), non-explosive ...

    It weighs less than 100 lb (45 kg) or 60 lb (27 kg) for the Reconnaissance version. Its cargo bay accommodates a variety of sensor payloads. The robot is controlled through a two-way radio or a Fiber-optic link from a portable or wearable Operator Control Unit (OCU) that provides continuous data and video feedback for precise vehicle positioning.

  7. Reactive material - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reactive_material

    Reactive materials are similar to insensitive high explosives, but are usually thermite-like pyrotechnic compositions of two or more nonexplosive solid materials, which stay inert and do not react with each other until subjected to a sufficiently strong mechanical, electrical or laser stimulus, after which they undergo fast burning or explosion ...

  8. Static VAR compensator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Static_VAR_compensator

    In Electrical Engineering, a static VAR compensator (SVC) is a set of electrical devices for providing fast-acting reactive power on high-voltage electricity transmission networks. [1] [2] SVCs are part of the flexible AC transmission system [3] [4] device family, regulating voltage, power factor, harmonics and stabilizing the system. A static ...

  9. Voltage control and reactive power management - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage_control_and...

    The task of additional reactive power compensation (also known as voltage compensation) is assigned to compensating devices: [7] passive (either permanently connected or switched) sinks of reactive power (e.g., shunt reactors that are similar to transformers in construction, with a single winding and iron core [9]).
