Abstract: Established in 1947, the International Organization for Standardization is a non-governmental federation of national standards bodies from 157 countries worldwide, one from each country. ISO’s work results in international agreements which are published as International Standards. The first ISO standard was published in 1951 with the title ‘Standard reference temperature for industrial length measurement’.

Towards a Framework for Certification of Reliable Autonomous Systems
Michael Fisher,Viviana Mascardi,Kristin Yvonne Rozier,Bernd-Holger Schlingloff,Michael Winikoff,Neil Yorke-Smith +5 more
TL;DR: What is needed in order to provide verified reliable behaviour of an autonomous system is analyzed, what can be done as the state-of-the-art in automated verification is analysed, and a roadmap towards developing regulatory guidelines is proposed.
Effect of reinforcement nanoparticles addition on mechanical properties of SBS/curauá fiber composites
TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of clay addition on properties like tensile and tear strength, rebound resilience, flex fatigue life, abrasion loss, hardness and water absorption of composites with 5, 10 and 20 wt% of curaua fiber was evaluated in presence of maleic anhydride grafted styrene-(ethylene- co-butylene)-styrene triblock copolymer (MA-g-SEBS) coupling agent.
Tackling the Downcycling Issue—A Revised Approach to Value-Corrected Substitution in Life Cycle Assessment of Aluminum (VCS 2.0)
Christoph Koffler,Julia Florin +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used different scrap class prices instead of a solitary secondary alloy price to represent the level of downcycling inflicted on aluminum over a product's life cycle, and found that the price ratio between scrap price and primary aluminum price was stable across all available scrap classes for the years 2007-2010.
