Background/ Procedure: An instrument or gauge cluster is a device usually positioned in front of the driver which displays useful information for operating a vehicle. The information usually displayed in an instrument cluster is vehicle speed, remaining fuel/range in addition to any vehicle hazard/safety lights. The first vehicle to incorporate an instrument cluster into its…

SAE1999-01-1336 Measured Vehicle Inertial Parameters – Abstract The paper presents an updated listing of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s (NHTSA) Light Vehicle Inertial Parameter Database. It includes vehicle inertial parameters measured up until September…
Steel in a Car finds application in numerous of car components like the frame, body, and moving parts such as chassis and powertrain components, thanks to its adaptability in meeting safety standards, crash requirements, and design specifications. Its exceptional capability to absorb and distribute crash energy, along with its buckling characteristics, makes it excellent for…
Foreword – This SAE Recommended Practice describes the eyellipse, a statistical representation of driver eye locations, which is used to facilitate design and evaluation of vision in motor vehicles. Examples of eyellipse applications include rearview mirror size and placement, wiped and defrosted areas, pillar size and location, and general exterior field of view. These applications…
Foreword—This Document was not changed other than to put it into the new SAE Technical Standards Board Format. 1. Scope —The devices of this SAE Standard provide the means by which passenger compartment dimensions can be obtained using a deflected seat rather than a free seat contour as a reference for defining seating space. All…
RATIONALE This revision reduces the complexity of this practice by simplifying the General Package Factor (G) equation, clarifying conditions for using restrained and unrestrained reach tables, removing English unit tables, clarifying the G value boundaries between each reach table, describing in more detail how to interpret when a control is considered within reach, and limiting…
Hey everyone! Today, we are going dive into the fundamental concepts from Physics 2, covering electric potential, energy, and the relationships governing charged particles. These principles are crucial for understanding electrostatics and provide a foundation for advanced applications in physics and engineering. What is meant by electric potential energy? Okay, so first things first –…
The leaf blower shown operates steadily and discharges air at the exit velocity of 180 ft/s. Assuming that the discharge pipe is of constant diameter with f = 0.02, that the minor losses at the blower inlet are Kinlet=1.3 and that the air density is rho=0.0735 lbm/ft3 , A) Estimate the total pressure increase across…
