Understanding Capacitance and Dielectrics

In physics, electric phenomena play a fundamental role, in shaping everything from electronics to modern technologies. Two essential concepts—capacitance and Dielectrics—serve as the foundation for understanding how these phenomena operate. Let’s delve into what capacitance and Dielectrics entail, the equations that define them, and their practical implications. Capacitance: Storing Electrical Energy Capacitance is a property…

SAE J1517 – Driver Selected Seat Position

SAE J1517 – Driver Selected Seat Position

The following is a summary of SAE J1517. Scope A driver-selected seat position tool has been developed to estimate where drivers of varying sizes will place horizontally adjustable seats in different vehicle types. This tool uses equations that predict horizontal H-point (seat position) based on vehicle H-point height (H30) and steering wheel diameter (W9). The…

SAE J1516 – Accommodation Tool Reference Point

SAE J1516 – Accommodation Tool Reference Point

The following is a summary of SAE J1516. Scope Reference lines have been created to guide the positioning of driver workspace accommodation tools within vehicle space, based on horizontal reference points tied to H-point height (H30). For Class A vehicles (H30 under 405 mm and steering wheel diameter under 450 mm), a single reference line…
