Inclusions: Any development, manufacture, and deployment of ADS technology such as On-road personal- or fleet-owned and operated passenger motor vehicles, Transportation as a Service (TaaS), Mobility as a Service, taxi, delivery, shuttle vehicles, trucks, and buses, and enabling or supporting services. Exclusions: Off-road or closed course applications (e.g. mining, on airport, industrial equipment).

This SAE Standard characterizes grapple skidders and identifies the major components and parts most commonly associated therewith. Illustrations used herein are not intended to include all existing commercial machines or to be exactly descriptive of any particular machine. They have been included to facilitate application of this document

This report specifies the minimum requirements for the Road Geometry and Attributes (RGA) data set (DS) to support road geometry related motor vehicle safety applications. Contained in this report are a concept of operations, requirements, and design, developed using a detailed systems engineering process. Utilizing the requirements, the RGA DS is defined, which includes the DS Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1) format, data frames, and data element definitions. The requirements are intended to enable the exchange of the messages and their DS information to provide the desired interoperability and data integrity to support the applications considered within this report, as well as other applications which may be able to utilize the DS information. System requirements beyond this are outside the scope of this report.

This SAE Recommended Practice has been established to provide direction for the design and installation of an identification number (IN) as assigned to vehicle engines, transmissions, and transaxles. The IN is used for tracking or traceability of these components. In adhering to these recommended practices, facility of application in factory production and appearance quality are matters for manufacturer control. Reference SAE J853.

This SAE Standard describes a new alphanumeric designation system for wrought steel used to designate wrought ferrous materials, identify chemical composition, and any other requirements listed in SAE Standards and Recommended Practices. The previous SAE steel designation coding system consisted of four or five numbers used to designate standard carbon and alloy steels specified to chemical composition ranges. Using SAE 1035 as an example, the 35 represents the nominal weight % carbon content for the grade. Using SAE 52100 as an example, the 100 represents the nominal weight % carbon content. The first two numbers of this four or five number series are used to designate the steel grade carbon or alloy system with variations in elements other than carbon. These are described in Table 1. In addition to the standard four or five number steel designation above, a letter was sometimes added to the grade code to denote a non-standard specific element being added to the standard grade.

This SAE Recommended Practice provides definitions, taxonomy, and characteristics for DA metrics used to quantify the driving performance of ADS-operated vehicles. Here, the primary focus is on the safety-related driving performance, which is considered to be related to completion of the dynamic driving task (DDT) . Driving performance is a subset of overall operational performance of ADS-operated vehicles. Thus, assessments of cybersecurity, maintenance, interactions with passengers, etc., while important, are out of scope for this document. Note that the DA metrics do not specify the actions and/or maneuvers to be executed by the subject vehicle. A literature review of DA metrics that have been proposed and, in some cases, used in previous studies was conducted. From this literature review, a set of DA metrics has been created with example usage. Evidence of prior research indicating that a metric has a relationship with safety outcome(s) is included where applicable.

This SAE Recommended Practice provides guidance for test facilities in identifying potential hazards, and safety risks, along with requirements and recommendations related specifically to testing of automated driving systems (ADS) and ADS-operated vehicles. Herein after, for the purposes of this document, utilization of the term “test facilities” implies those conducting testing of ADS or ADS-operated vehicles, unless otherwise noted. References made to safety within this recommended practice apply only to test method safety and driving safety on and during testing at an ADS test facility and do not apply to vehicle design or safety performance. Safety practices for on-road testing, operation, and related deployment are not covered within this document.

This SAE Standard covers motor vehicle brake fluids of the nonpetroleum type, based upon glycols, glycol ethers, and appropriate inhibitors, for use in the braking system of any motor vehicle such as a passenger car, truck, bus, or trailer. These fluids are not intended for use under arctic conditions. These fluids are designed for use in braking systems fitted with rubber cups and seals made from styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR), or a terpolymer of ethylene, propylene, and a diene (EPDM).

This SAE Standard covers motor vehicle brake fluids of the nonpetroleum type, based upon glycols, glycol ethers, and borates of glycol ethers, and appropriate inhibitors for use in the braking system of any motor vehicle, such as a passenger car, truck, bus, or trailer. These fluids are not intended for use under arctic conditions. These fluids are designed for use in braking systems fitted with rubber cups and seals made from styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) or a terpolymer of ethylene, propylene, and a diene (EPDM).

The J2012 Digital Annex of Diagnostic Trouble Code Definitions Spreadsheet provides DTC information in an excel format for use in your organization's work processes. The column headings include the same information as contained in the J2012 standard. Information in the excel spreadsheet will be updated several times annually and the spreadsheet includes a column heading denoting which DTCs have been updated in the current version.

This SAE Recommended Practice provides an orderly series for designating the thickness of unocated and coated hot-rolled and cold-rolled sheet and strip. This document also provides methods for specifying thickness tolerances.

To harmonize and define terminology associated with occupant protection for children for vehicle manufacturers and child restraint manufacturers in the United States and Canada.

This SAE Standard provides test procedures, requirements, and guidelines for tail lamps intended for use on vehicles 2032 mm or more in overall width. Tail lamps conforming to the requirements of this document may also be used on vehicles less than 2032 mm in overall width.

This test method specifies the operating procedures for a controlled-irradiance, xenon-arc apparatus used for the accelerated exposure of various automotive interior trim components. Test duration, as well as any exceptions to the specimen preparation and performance evaluation procedures contained in this document, are covered in material specifications of the different automotive manufacturers. Any deviation to this test method, such as the use of optical filter combinations, is to be agreed upon by contractual parties.

This white paper is an examination of the increasing rate of injuries and deaths worldwide of a class of road users, often referred to as “vulnerable road users” (VRUs), with a focus on pedestrians, cyclists, scooterists, highway road workers, safety, and emergency personnel. The potential to leverage pragmatic, evidence-based technology countermeasures to reduce these collisions, and the severity of those that do occur, is also examined.

This SAE Information Report provides a compendium of terms, definitions, abbreviations, and acronyms to enable common terminology for use in engineering reports, diagnostic tools, and publications related to active safety systems. This information report is a survey of terms related to calibration of active safety systems. The definitions offered are descriptions of inputs, outputs, and processes rather than technical specifications. Definitions for end-of-line procedures are not included.
