- Not-To-Exceed
The Not To Exceed NTE standard recently promulgated by the United States Environmental Protection Agency EPA ensures that heavy duty engine Exhaust gas emissions are controlled over the full range of speed and load combinations commonly experienced in use. NTE establishes an area the NTE zone under the torque curve of an engine where emissions must not exceed a specified value for any of the regulated pollutants. The NTE test procedure does not involve a specific driving cycle of any specific length mileage or time . Rather it involves driving of any type that could occur within the bounds of the NTE control area, including operation under steady state or transient conditions and under varying ambient conditions. Emissions are averaged over a minimum time of thirty seconds and then compared to the applicable NTE emission limits. ref Dieselnet, Applicability and Test Cycles , Emission Standards United States Heavy Duty Truck and http www.dieselnet.com standards us hd.html ref Creation of NTE NTE standards were created by the EPA as a result of a consent decree between the EPA and several major diesel engine manufacturers. These manufacturers included Caterpillar Inc. Caterpillar , Cummins , Detroit Diesel , Mack Trucks Mack , Mack s parent company Renault Vehicles Industriels, and Volvo Truck Corp. These manufacturers were accused of violating the Clean Air Act by installing devices that defeat emission controls. ref Mike Osenga, Diesel industry confronts the emission settlement EPA enforcement of the Clean Air Act affects entire diesel engine industry Industry Overview , Diesel Progress North American Edition , Published 12 January 1998 http www.encyclopedia.com doc 1G1 53919838.html ... the torque curve of an engine where emissions must not exceed a specified emission cap for a given pollutant ... of California AIR RESOURCES BOARD, PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER AMENDMENTS TO ADOPT NOT TO EXCEED AND EURO ... law DEFAULTSORT Not To Exceed Nte Category Vehicle emission controls Category Energy in the United ... more details

- Brittle system
A brittle system is system characterized by a sudden and steep decline in performance as the system state changes. This can be due to input parameters which exceed a specified input, or environmental conditions which exceed specified operating boundaries. This is the opposite of a gracefully degrading system. A brittle system will tend to operate with high performance until it reaches a limit and then degrades suddenly and catastrophically.
