This SAE Standard describes head position contours and procedures for locating the contours in a vehicle. Head position contours are useful in establishing accommodation requirements for head space and are required for several measures defined in SAE J1100. Separate contours are defined depending...

095400-000000-000000 1 Scope 1.1 These requirements cover an energy storage system (ESS) that is intended to receive and store energy in some form so that the ESS can provide electrical energy to loads or to the local/area electric power system (EPS) when needed. Electrochemical, chemical,...

4.1 Fatigue test results may be significantly influenced by the properties and history of the parent material, the operations performed during the preparation of the fatigue specimens, and the testing machine and test procedures used during the generation of the data. The presentation of fatigue...

5.1 Effects of Air Change-Air change often accounts for a significant portion of the heating or air-conditioning load of a building. It also affects the moisture and contaminant balances in the building. Moisture-laden air passing through the building envelope can permit condensation and cause...

5.1 The procedures described in this practice have proven utility in the inspecting (1) monolithic polymer matrix composites (laminates) for bulk defects, (2) metals for corrosion during the service life of the part of interest, (3) thickness checks, (4) adhesive bonding of metals,...

4.1 Measurement of the thickness of a coating is essential to assessing its utility and cost. 4.2 The coulometric method destroys the coating over a very small (about 0.1 cm2) test area. Therefore its use is limited to applications where a bare spot at the test area is acceptable or the test...

Head worn displays (HWD) can display a variety of information ranging from a full complement of primary flight information (PFI), including enhanced, synthetic, or combined vision system imagery to simple representations of airspeed, altitude, or heading to operationally specific information that...

1.1 This specification covers flexible, retroreflective sheeting for use in high visibility markings to provide enhanced daytime and/or nighttime visibility for use on emergency response vehicles, utility vehicles, and similar vehicles. 1.2 Units-The values stated in either SI units or...
