abstract
We obtain the integral formulae for computing the tetrads and metric components in Riemann normal coordinates and Fermi coordinate system of an observer in arbitrary motion. Our approach admits essential enlarging the range of validity of these coordinates. The results obtained are applied to the geodesic deviation in the field of a weak plane gravitational wave and the computation of plane-wave metric in Fermi normal coordinates.

Equivalence Principle violation in metric-affine gravity and finite-temperature effects
Metric-affine gravity formulates equivalence principle violations via non-metricity that parallel finite-temperature mass-ratio shifts, and a generalized Fermi-Walker derivative shows no orthonormal tetrad propagates along observer worldlines.
