With over thirty years of experience in the design, development, and patenting of some products in the field of wheel alignment, the author shares his knowledge on the importance of wheel maintenance to the overall performance of a vehicle. From the ancient bullock carts to chariots to automobiles, wheels have undergone many changes to serve the purpose of mankind's mobility. Mobility is inevitable in today's life. A world without wheels is unimaginable. Every vehicle owner expects his tires to last longer and perform better. But improper wheel alignment and wheel balancing can drastically impact the wear and tear on a tire. This book walks the readers through the basics to techniques for wheel alignment on light vehicles, commercial vehicles, and trailers. In addition, illustrations present various types of tire wear and the cause of each. Finally, the author delves into tire safety from understanding how air pressure effects a tire to the importance of tire rotation.

This specification covers the requirements for thin, hard, dense electrodeposited chromium plating on surfaces of ferrous and nonferrous alloys.

This document describes methodologies to determine the causes blow-by oil consumption caused by the power cylinder.

This SAE Recommended Practice provides test protocols with performance requirements for camera monitor systems (CMSs) to replace existing statutorily required inside and outside rear-view mirrors for U.S. market road vehicles. This practice expands specific technical content while retaining harmonization with the FMVSS 111 rear visibility standard and other international standards. This is accomplished by defining required roadway fields of view as specific fields of view (FOV) displayed inside the vehicle. Specific testing protocols and/or specifications are added to enhance ease of use using straightforward language, and any specifications are intended to be independent of different camera and display technologies unless otherwise explicitly stated.

This SAE Aerospace Information Report (AIR) provides background information, technical data, and related technical references for minimization of electrostatic hazards in aircraft fuel systems.

The following list consists of hose data provided as of December, 2021, and is for convenience in determining acceptability of nonmetallic flexible hose assemblies intended for usage under 46 CFR 56.60-25. Where the maximum allowable working pressure (MAWP) or type of fitting is not specified, use the manufacturer's recommended MAWP or type of fitting. This list has been compiled by SAE staff from information provided by the manufacturers whose product listings appear in this document. Manufacturers wishing to list their products in this document shall: a Successfully test their hose to the requirements of SAE J1942, Table 1. b Submit a letter of certification to the SAE J1942 test requirements for each specific type of hose tested (see sample table, Table 1) along with the test results.

This SAE Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) describes the multi-pass method for evaluating the filtration performance of fine lube filter elements, commonly utilized in aerospace power and propulsion lubrication systems: gas turbine engines, auxiliary power units (APUs), helicopter transmissions, constant speed drives (CSDs), and integrated drive generators (IDGs).

This specification covers the requirements for electroless nickel-phosphorus plate that is co-deposited with polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) over other materials.

This SAE Aerospace Standard (AS) establishes minimum design and performance requirements for galley insert equipment with an electrical and/or pressure system, as well as associated components intended for installation in galleys and other areas (e.g., bars) of transport category airplanes.

This SAE Recommended Practice describes the vibration durability testing of a single battery (test unit) consisting of either an electric vehicle battery module or an electric vehicle battery pack that is typically greater than 200 kg in mass and structurally integrated as part of the vehicle. For statistical purposes, multiple samples would normally be subjected to such testing. Additionally, some test units may be subjected to life cycle testing (either after or during vibration testing) to determine the effects of vibration on battery life. Such life testing is not described in this procedure; SAE J2288 may be used for this purpose as applicable. Finally, impact testing, such as crash and pothole, are not included in this procedure. SAE 2464 describes abusive/safety shock tests. Preferably, a specific vibration durability profile should be developed based on actual vehicle measurements for the specific electric vehicle application.

This document describes the initial development, evolution, and use of reticulated polyurethane foam as an explosion suppression material in fuel tanks and dry bays. It provides historical data, design practice guidelines, references, laboratory test data, and service data gained from past experience. The products discussed in this document may be referred to as "Safety Foam," "Reticulated Polyurethane Foam," "Baffle and Inerting Material," or "Electrostatic Suppression Material." These generic terms for the products discussed in this document are not meant to imply any safety warranty. Each individual design application should be thoroughly proof tested prior to production installation.

This specification covers the requirements for electrodeposited nanocrystalline cobalt-phosphorus plating.

Conventional methods of physicochemical models require various experts and a high measurement demand to achieve the required model accuracy. With an additional request for faster development time for diagnostic algorithms, this method has reached the limits of economic feasibility. Machine learning algorithms are getting more popular in order to achieve a high model accuracy with an appropriate economical effort and allow to describe complex problems using statistical methods. An important point is the independence from other modelled variables and the exclusive use of sensor data and actuator settings. The concept has already been successfully proven in the field of modelling for exhaust gas aftertreatment sensors. An engine-out nitrogen oxide (NOX) emission sensor model based on polynomial regression was developed, trained, and transferred onto a conventional automotive electronic control unit (ECU) and also proves real-time capability.

In the present work, it is investigated how a flush arrangement to the outer skin affects the aerodynamic characteristic curve of active grille shutters (AGS). For this purpose, a recently developed theory, which analytically describes the aerodynamic behavior of AGS arranged in a straight flow channel, is extended accordingly, and the influence of an arrangement of AGS flush with the outer skin is first theoretically analyzed. The theoretical results are then validated experimentally. For this purpose, measurements of real vehicles with suitable AGS are used. The results show a good agreement of the theoretical predictions with the experiment. The theoretical and experimental analyses allow conclusions to be drawn as to how and under what conditions an arrangement flush with the outer skin affects the aerodynamic behavior of AGS.

This SAE Aerospace Information Report (AIR) provides data and general analysis methods for calculation of internal and external, pressurized and unpressurized airplane compartment pressures during rapid discharge of cabin pressure. References to the applicable current FAA and EASA rules and advisory material are provided. While rules and interpretations can be expected to evolve, numerous airplanes have been approved under current and past rules that will have a continuing need for analysis of production and field modifications, alterations and repairs. The data and basic principles provided by this report are adaptable to any compartment decompression analysis requirement.
