This document provides guidance to using Rust in critical and safety-related software. The document summarizes how the usage of Rust supports in arguing safety according to ISO 26262 or RTCA DO-178C combined with RTCA DO-332. Cybersecurity best practices are referenced as these requirements largely overlap with those implemented for safety. As the Rust language is still evolving, this document targets the 2021 and 2024 editions of the language. Older or newer editions might require additional or changed rules and guidelines. Generally, the newest available edition of the language should be selected as newer editions remove ambiguities and outdated parts from the language.

This SAE Standard covers a single Un-Jacketed (UTP) and Jacketed (J-UTP) Balanced Unshielded Twisted Pair data cable intended for use in surface vehicle cables for 10 Mb/s Ethernet shared bus applications. The tests in this document are intended to qualify cables for normal operation in an automotive environment while maintaining the necessary electrical properties for reliable data transmission.

This research provides a unique contribution to the field of in-wheel motor drive electric vehicles (EVs) by addressing the challenges associated with the use of permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSMs) for traction. These motors, integrated into the unsprung masses, increase the rotational inertia of the wheels, reducing ride smoothness on uneven roads. To mitigate this issue, we present an optimal Kalman filter for a magnetorheological (MR) control suspension system that correlates road inputs between the front and rear wheels. This filter significantly improves the estimation accuracy of state variables by incorporating the vertical motion of the motor, along with potential enhancements from wheelbase preview. To determine the most suitable coil spring types for use with MR dampers, we used the WDW-600 computer-controlled electronic universal testing machine to evaluate three coil spring types: constant pitch (model A), variable pitch (model B), and conical spring (model C).

Performing transportation and exploration tasks on rugged terrain requires both high load-bearing capacity and large suspension stroke. However, the corner module configurations applied to challenging terrain have rarely been explored. This article proposes an integrated framework that combines bionic principles with topology graph–based type synthesis. This framework leads to the creation of a reconfigurable wheel-legged mechanism capable of switching between wheeled locomotion and legged gait modes, which is then implemented as a corner module system. First, inspired by the skeletal–muscular system of the equine leg, a structure–function mapping relationship between the biological system and the mechanical system is established. Second, a multi-loop closed-chain mechanism with biomimetic morphology is represented in the form of graph theory. A configuration atlas of the wheel-legged hybrid mechanism is generated based on the contracted graph and open-loop kinematic chains, and
