7、 information.The SAE G-11 committee is concerned with whether a certain type of RMS data existsand how and where it can be obtained. While various bibliographic publications doexist, there has been no convenient source document consolidating information aboutall types of data sources - books, period
8、icals, organizations, on-line databases, etc. -covering military industrial, commercial and professional societies. This publication isintended to provide a ready source for this type of information.While it would be virtually impossible to identify all sources of RMS information anddata, an attempt
9、 has been made in this publication to identify those sources which arethe most readily available and most helpful to the assurance technology practitioner.This document is organized into five chapters:Chapter 1Chapter 2Chapter 3Chapter 4Chapter 5Introduction and Usage - Describes the purpose for thi
10、spublication and the process by which information is keptcurrent through periodic updates.Organizations - Government, military, professional, andeducational groups which support reliability and qualitydisciplines.Publications - Proceedings, journals, newsletters,periodicals, and books containing rel
11、iability data andinformation.Databases - Automated and semi-automated databasescontaining component and system reliability data.Electronic Bulletin Boards - On-line resources for reliabilityinformation exchange.The data sources listed cover a broad spectrum. Some focus on DOD needs; othersserve a li
12、mited segment of the industrial community. Access to some data sources isrestricted, while others are open to any and all users. Some sources are available at nocost to the user, where others charge the user for their information. Where possiblethese distinctions have been made in the text. No matte

24、r an entire system can be so characterized as to reliability,predict its presence, or performance under a prescribed service regime.Radiographic, holographic, acoustic, magnetic and other related phenomena arewithin the NTIAC scope. The use of nondestructive sensors for manufacturingand materials pr
25、ocess control, and for intelligent or adaptive control applications,is also within the purview of NTIAC. Other information of concern to NTIACincludes economic aspects of the NDE industry, economic considerations withrespect to selection of techniques and processes; industry trends in applyingcurren
26、t NDE technologies in research and development, production,maintenance, safety monitoring, failure prevention of in-service material, and lifeassurance. As a national resource of NDE/NDI technology, NTIAC will providefast reaction time to service inquiries for analysis, especially where field andmil
27、itary systems are involved or where potential failure or quality situations mayarise. In addition to providing customized literature searches onNDT/NDE/NDI, NTIAC has a variety of state-of-the-art reports available onspecialized NDE topics and copies of conference proceedings for NDE Symposiaheld in
28、 San Antonio since 1969.
