Code name policy of assigning code names intended to give no such clues to the uninitiated. For example, the British counter measures against the V-2 was called "Operation Crossbow". The atomic bomb project centered in New Mexico was called the Manhattan Project, derived from the Manhattan Engineer District which managed the program. The code name for the American A-12 / SR-71 spy plane project, producing the fastest, highest-flying aircraft in the world, was "Oxcart". The American group that planned that country's first ICBM was called the Teapot Committee. Although the word could stand for a menace to shipping (in this case, that
Testing of advanced thermoplastic composite welds of the test specimen will be aligned with the direction of the applied tension. The machines grip on the test specimen must be 63 mm (2.5 in). The code specifies what needs to be recorded from the test such as material used, material thickness and other necessary sample measurements, and material properties. ASTM also governs on precision of testing, and avoiding bias in the results. ASTM D3166 specifies fatigue testing methods for metal to metal adhesive joints. It references ASTM D1002 for creating test specimens. The testing machine must be capable of applying a sinusoidal cyclic axial load. The cycle
