Data retrieval system provides unlimited hardware design information

Data is input to magnetic tape on a single format card that specifies the system, location, and component, the test point identification number, the operators initial, the date, a data code, and the data itself. This method is efficient for large volume data storage and retrieval, and permits output variations without continuous program modifications.

Technique for measuring magnetic tape interlayer adhesion

Technique measures interlayer adhesion in spacecraft data storage tape to avoid blocking. An unwind force is exerted on the spool, and the displacement before breakaway of the weighted outer layer is used to calculate the peel-off force necessary. This technique also can have terrestrial applications.

Highly linear, sensitive analog-to-digital converter

Analog-to-digital converter converts 10 volt full scale input signal into 13 bit digital output. Advantages include high sensitivity, linearity, low quantitizing error, high resistance to mechanical shock and vibration loads, and temporary data storage capabilities.

Electronic strain-level counter

Counter for aircraft counts and records number of times the strain at a point in a structural member exceeds each of four preset levels. Counter uses 28 volt dc power supply, metallic resistance strain gage bridge as sensor, integrated and solid state circuits for signal processing, and electromechanical counters for data storage and readout.

A continuous physiological data collector

COP-DAC system utilizes oxygen and carbon dioxide analyzers, gas-flow meter, gas breathe-through system, analog computer, and data storage system to provide actual rather than average measurements of physiological and metabolic functions.

Space shuttle propulsion systems on-board checkout and monitoring system development study (extension). Volume 1: Summary and technical results

An analysis was conducted of the space shuttle propulsion systems to define the onboard checkout and monitoring function. A baseline space shuttle vehicle and mission were used to establish the techniques and approach for defining the requirements. The requirements were analyzed to formulate criteria for implementing the functions of preflight checkout, performance monitoring, fault isolation, emergency detection, display, data storage, postflight evaluation, and maintenance retest.
