SAE JA1012 (“A Guide to the Reliability-Centered Maintenance (RCM) Standard”) amplifies and clarifies each of the key criteria listed in SAE JA1011 (“Evaluation Criteria for RCM Processes”), and summarizes additional issues that must be addressed in order to apply RCM successfully.

This SAE Recommended Practice applies to the abrasion resistance testing of decorative tapes, graphics, and pin striping. It may also have relevance to certain vehicle labels and plastic wood grain film. The resistance to abrasive damage is judged qualitatively by its effect on the legibility, pattern, and color of the graphic marking. This recommended practice is intended as a guide toward standard practice but may be subject to frequent change to keep pace with experience and technical advances. This should be kept in mind when considering the use of this recommended practice.

As a simulation of road driving, wind tunnel testing of full-size vehicles produces certain errors in the aerodynamic forces, aerodynamic moments, and surface pressures. The magnitude of these errors, in general, depends on the following: a Flow quality b Determination of the reference dynamic pressure c Wind tunnel floor boundary layer d Test section geometry and position of the car within that geometry e Shape of the vehicle f Blockage ratio: The ratio of the cross-sectional area of the vehicle to the cross-sectional area of the wind tunnel nozzle g Wheel rotation h Internal flow in the model The SAE Standards Committee, Open Throat Wind Tunnel Adjustments had as a goal to document the knowledge of the influence of model interference on wind tunnel test results for automotive open jet wind tunnels.

The scope of this SAE Information Report is confined to wind-tunnel testing, although it is recognized that many aspects of the aerodynamic characteristics of road vehicles can be investigated in other test facilities (such as water-tanks) or, especially, on the road. For example, coastdown testing is often used to determine aerodynamic drag (either in isolation or as part of the total resistance), and artificial gust generators are used to investigate the sensitivity of vehicles to cross-wind gusts. Also excluded from the present Report are climatic wind-tunnel tests of road vehicles, which are defined in more detail in Section 3. The Report covers the aerodynamic requirements of a wind-tunnel for automotive testing, together with the facility equipment needed and the requirements affecting the test vehicle or model.

This SAE Recommended Practice is intended to provide a design, critical dimensions, performance requirements, and identification for gladhand-type air line couplers used to connect the brake systems of trucks, truck-tractors, and trailers when these vehicles are joined to operate as a combination unit.

This SAE Standard covers the hardness, tensile strength, and microstructural requirements for gray iron sand mold castings used in automotive and allied industries. The chemical requirements for alloy gray iron automotive camshafts are included in the document under castings for special application with controlled composition and microstructure. Appendix A provides general information on application of gray iron in automotive castings and chemical composition to meet hardness, microstructural, and other properties needed for particular service conditions. Casting tensile strength estimates are provided in Appendix A for design reference.

This specification covers the requirements for rubber floor mats made from five types of rubber compounds as required by the physical property requirements of the application.

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.
