ASTM's petroleum products, liquid fuels, and lubricants committee (D02) is developing a proposed standard that will describe a procedure for simultaneously measuring the kinematic viscosity, dynamic viscosity, and density of liquid petroleum products and crude oils. “Laboratories that want a high degree of flexibility with regard to samples and measuring temperatures and for whom simple operations is important will benefit [from this standard],” says Niklas Christensson, managing director, eralytics GmbH. “In addition to viscosity, density measurement is also covered, which will be of interest to some users.” Learn more at https://lnkd.in/eRRqqtnE #petroleum #lubricants #oil #oils #fuel #fuels #vicosity

The Workshop on Novel and Emerging Uses of Sensor Technology in Mechanical Fatigue and Fracture Testing will be held May 7, 2025. Organized by ASTM Committees E08 on Fatigue and Fracture and E28 on Mechanical Testing, it will be held in Toronto, Ontario, Canada in conjunction with the standards development meetings of the committee. This workshop will provide a forum to discuss new applications of measurement methods, and new ways of working, to control and analyze fatigue and fracture tests.

ASTM's commercial spaceflight committee (F47) is developing a proposed standard that will contain recommended practices and design elements for suborbital #space vehicles, orbital space vehicles, and orbital platforms (space stations). “With an eye toward on-orbit operations, commonality in fueling, transfer connections, and docking requirements will be essential for efficient operations,” says Ronald Desmarais, the F47 task group lead for the document. “[This] design standard will also tie in other standards, including those relating to occupant restraints, human factors, software, safety systems, and others under current or future development.” Learn more at https://lnkd.in/e9Qchu_g #CommercialSpaceflight #space #spacetravel #spacestation #suborbital #orbital
