E-25 General Standards for Aerospace and Propulsion Systems
The thermocouple design recommended herein is presented as one for which the correction to the observed emf, because of thermal conduction along the stem and wires, is within the limits presented in the accompanying figure. On referring to the figure, it is seen that no restriction is placed upon the diameter of the thermocouple or stem, and the longitudinal dimensions are expressed in terms of wire and stem diameters. The type of stem, such as packed ceramic stock, refractory insulating tubing, etc., also is left open to choice. Thus the sizes of wires and supporting stems may be varied over wide ranges to match particular requirements where conduction errors are to be limited or controlled.

This specification covers an aluminum alloy in the form of sheet 0.040 to 0.249 inch (1.02 to 6.32 mm) in nominal thickness (see 8.7).
AMS D Nonferrous Alloys Committee
This SAE Information Report establishes procedures and terminology for measuring, calculating, and referencing the percent vehicle overlap for a case vehicle in real-world or staged end plane collisions where the end plane of the case vehicle is engaged at one of the two bumper corners but not both. This SAE Information Report may be applied to rear or front plane impacts.
Crash Data Collection and Analysis Standards Committee
SAE J1942, developed through the cooperative efforts of the U.S. Coast Guard and SAE, became effective August 28, 19911, as the official document for nonmetallic flexible hose assemblies for commercial marine use. This SAE Standard covers specific requirements for several styles of hose and/or hose assemblies in systems aboard commercial vessels inspected and certificated by the U.S. Coast Guard. It is intended that this document establish hose constructions and performance levels that are essential to safe operations in the marine environment. Refer to SAE J1273 for selection, installation, and maintenance of hose and hose assemblies. Refer to SAE J1527 for hose to convey gasoline or diesel fuel aboard small craft, including pleasure craft and related small commercial craft regulated directly or by reference under 33 CFR 183 Subpart J, and boats and yachts meeting American Boat and Yacht Council standards. SAE J1942-1 is a listing of the products which have been certified for use in
Hydraulic Hose and Hose Fittings Committee
This specification covers a premium aircraft-quality maraging steel in the form of bars and forgings, 0.50 to 8.00 inches (12.7 to 203.2 mm) in nominal diameter or least distance between parallel sides, and forging stock of any size.
AMS E Carbon and Low Alloy Steels Committee
This SAE Recommended Practice was developed primarily for passenger car and truck applications but may be used in marine, industrial, and similar applications. It addresses nonmetallic caps and both metallic and nonmetallic filler necks.
Cooling Systems Standards Committee
This SAE Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) document establishes criteria and recommended practices for the use of airborne icing tankers to aid in design and certification of aircraft ice protection systems and components. Several icing tankers are described, along with their capabilities and suggested use. Sample data for these tanker spray systems are included, shown with 14 CFR Parts 25 and 29, Appendix C icing envelopes for continuous maximum and intermittent maximum icing conditions. (Note: In the remainder of this document, the phrase “Appendix C icing envelopes” will be used for brevity.) This ARP is intended as a guide toward standard practice and is subject to change to keep pace with experience and technical advances.
AC-9C Aircraft Icing Technology Committee
This document applies to off-road forestry work machines defined in SAE J1116 or ISO 6814.
MTC4, Forestry and Logging Equipment
This SAE Standard specifies the test requirements in addition to those given in ISO 3046-1 for determining the power, at a single point or as a power curve, of marine propulsion engines or systems for recreational craft and other small craft using similar propulsion equipment of less than 24 m length of the hull. It also provides the means for documenting and checking the declared (rated) power published by the manufacturer.

Subaru has developed vehicle-based Injury Severity Predictions (ISP) models using data from the National Automotive Sampling System Crashworthiness Data System (NASS-CDS) covering calendar years 1999–2015, for integration into Advanced Automatic Collision Notification (AACN) systems. This study evaluates the accuracy of these ISP models by comparing predictions derived from Subaru vehicle telemetry with actual Injury Severity Scores (ISS) of transported occupants. Two crash databases were utilized: Subaru Telematics Assisted Accident Research (STAAR) data for calendar years 2021–2024, which includes Automatic Collision Notification (ACN) data, police reports, emergency medical services (EMS), and medical records from the medical centers across Michigan; and the Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS) data for calendar years 2021–2023, matched with ACN data to supplement serious injury cases. ISS values were obtained from medical records in STAAR, while fatal cases in FARS were

This study aims to explore and evaluate the effect of various foot positions on the kinematic and kinetic response of the lower extremity during frontal crashes using a realistic vehicle interior. Frontal impact sled tests were performed with the Test Device for Human Occupant Restraint, 50th-percentile Male (THOR-50M) and Test Device for Human Occupant Restraint, 5th-percentile Female (THOR-05F) anthropometric test device (ATD) in the driver’s seat of a midsize SUV testing buck (with realistic interior components including an instrument panel with steering wheel and steering wheel airbag, seat, three-point seat belt with pretensioner and force-limiter, accelerator pedal, brake pedal, knee airbag, and seat belt retractor pretensioner). Six sled tests were performed in two principal directions of force (PDOF) [three each in frontal (0°) and oblique (−20°) configurations]. The right foot was positioned on the accelerator pedal, fully on the brake, and half on the brake. A single test was

Previous rear-facing post-mortem human subject (PMHS) studies utilizing a reinforced seat have prompted questions as to whether the seat could have been a contributing factor to the severe rib and pelvis injuries observed in those experiments. In response, a recent PMHS study used an unreinforced seat in a similar experiment, which was expected to mitigate severe injuries by dissipating energy from seatback deformations. However, the PMHS tested in the unreinforced seat sustained even more severe rib fracture numbers than in the reinforced seat. No studies have investigated how additional variables (i.e., countermeasures) may influence rib fractures in high-speed rear-facing frontal impacts (HSRFFI). Therefore, this study aimed to explore the effect of an airbag-equipped seat (AES) on male PMHS responses and injuries. Rear-facing sled tests were conducted using five mid-size male PMHS seated in the AES at ΔV of 56 km/h: PMHS1 with no airbag as a baseline, PMHS2 with a seatback airbag
