If they are abbreviations which are extremely common to the field, once per work is often enough to define them. If they are rare, invented for the piece, or really jargon, I would say once per section (once per chapter, once per web page).

Alternatively, a list of acronyms at the beginning or end of a piece might also be helpful.
