Aircraft produced under a type certified design are issued a Standard Airworthiness Certificate.

This is a notable capability of the Objective-C language, and is a common feature in any language that allows object classes to be manipulated as first-class objects by the programmer.
Type I cytokeratin Type I cytokeratins constitutes the Type I intermediate filaments (IFs) of the intracytoplasmatic cytoskeleton, which is present in all mammalian epithelial cells. Most of the type I cytokeratins consist of acidic, low molecular weight proteins which 'in vivo' are arranged in pairs of heterotypic Type I and Type II keratin chains, coexpressed during differentiation of simple and stratified epithelial tissues.
Type I cytokine receptor Type I cytokine receptors are proteins expressed on the surface of cells that recognize and respond to cytokines with four α-helical strands. These receptors are also known under the name hemopoietin receptors, and share a common amino acid motif (WSXWS) in the extracellular portion adjacent to the cell membrane.

Type physicalism Type physicalism (also known as Type Identity Theory, Mind-Brain Identity Theory and Identity Theory of Mind) is a theory, in philosophy of mind, which asserts that mental events are type-identical to the physical events in the brain with which they are correlated. It is called type identity in order to distinguish it from a similar but distinct theory called the token identity theory.
Type polymorphism In computer science, polymorphism means allowing a single definition to be used with different types of data (specifically, different classes of objects). For instance, a polymorphic function definition can replace several type-specific ones, and a single polymorphic operator can act in expressions of various types.

Type safety In computer science, type safety is a property attributed to some, but not all, programming languages. The term is defined differently by different communities who use it — in particular, the formal type-theoretic definition is considerably stronger than what is understood by most programmers — but most uses have in common the notion of employing a type system to prevent certain forms of erroneous or undesirable program behavior (called type errors).
Type site In archaeology a type site (also known as a type-site or typesite) is a site that is considered the model of a particular archaeological culture. For example, the type site of the Pre-Pottery Neolithic A culture is Jericho, in the West Bank.
Type system In computer science, a type system defines how a programming language classifies values and expressions into types, how it can manipulate those types and how they interact. A type indicates a set of values that have the same sort of generic meaning or intended purpose (although some types, such as abstract types and function types, might not get represented as values in the running computer program).

Typeahead Typeahead is a feature of computers and software (and typewriters, in days gone by) that enables users to continue typing regardless of program or computer operation—the user may type in whatever speed he desires, and if the receiving software is busy at the time it will be called to handle this later. Often this means that keystrokes entered will not be displayed on the screen immediately.
Typebar A typebar is an 'arm' inside a typewriter with a character on the end of it. There are generally two characters per typebar, one which will be printed if the corresponding key is struck by itself, the other of which will be printed if the corresponding key is struck while the shift key is depressed.

Typed Assembly Language In computer science, a Typed Assembly Language refers to an assembly language that is extended to include a method of anotating the datatype of each value that is manipulated by the code and a high-level memory management system (typically based on a garbage collector). These annotations can then be used by a program that processes the assembly language code in order to analyse how it will behave when it is executed.

Typed lambda calculi are foundational programming languages and are the base of typed functional programming languages such as ML and Haskell and, more indirectly, typed imperative programming languages.
Typed link A typed link in a hypertext system is a link to another document or part of a document that includes information about the character of the link. For example, rather than merely pointing to the existence of a document, a link might also specify that the document supports the conclusion of the article pointing to it, that it contradicts the article pointing to it, that it is an older version of the document, that it serves to define the word next to the link, that it is an index to other documents of the same type, or some other relationship.

It was Melville's most popular work during his lifetime; for 19th century readers his career seemed to go downhill afterwards, but during the early 20th century it was seen as just the beginning of a career that peaked with Moby Dick (1852).
Typeface In typography, a typeface is a coordinated set of glyphs designed with stylistic unity. A typeface usually comprises an alphabet of letters, numerals, and punctuation marks; it may also include ideograms and symbols, or consist entirely of them, for example, mathematical or map-making symbols.
