SAE International to develop standards for natural gas vehicles

With forecasts that demand for natu-ral gas as a transportation fuel will grow substantially over the next six years—reaching more than 2 billion ft³ per day by 2020—the SAE In-ternational Truck and Bus Council has launched an ef-fort to develop relevant SAE standards. Today, most nat-ural gas fuel consumption is concentrated in the heavy-duty trucking industry.

“The use of natural gas as a transportation fuel is extremely important,” said Ron Eickelman, President, Agility Fuel Systems. “All indicators point to an increase in the number of vehicles fueled by natural gas. To achieve universal levels of safety, reliability, and per-formance, there is no question that codes and improved standards are needed now!”

The Cummins Westport ISX12 G natural gas engine is factory-built by Cummins and is used in a wide range of heavy-duty applications.

CELEBRATING 80 YEARS IN DETROIT!

REGISTER TODAY!

At the SAE 2013 Commercial Ve-hicle Engineering Congress, held in October in Rosemont, IL, industry participants in a Blue Ribbon Panel on natural gas were unanimous in their belief that standards will help the industry to more quickly embrace natural-gas-based technologies.

In response to the heavy-duty trucking industry need, the SAE In-

ternational Truck and Bus Council launched an effort to establish rel-evant SAE standards. All interested parties involved in natural gas stan-dardization are invited to contribute to this development through active participation. For more informa-tion, please contact Jana Wright at jwright@sae.org.

SAE Update 4 February 2014

Celebrating its 11th year, the popular SAE 2014 Hybrid & Electric Vehicle Technologies Symposium will be held Feb. 11-13 at the Hilton La Jolla Tor-rey Pines in La Jolla, CA.

The event addresses critical infor-mation on both the technical de-velopments in electric vehicle (EV) technologies as well as the business decisions around technology devel-opment and implementation. Ad-ditionally, it allows for attendees to meet with those industry experts and technology specialists from the entire

supply chain of EVs, hybrid electric vehicles, and extended-range electric vehicles to engage in dialogue about the topics of greatest interest.

Attendees of this year’s event will hear about technology applications of the manufacturers’ hybrid and electric vehicles, powertrain technol-ogies and components, and support-ing technologies such as advanced energy storage and charging systems. New to this year’s event are discus-sions on technology applications from the motorsports and vehicle

The first Cadillac CTS Vsport pro-duced was delivered Dec. 19 to the high bidder in an auction to benefit the SAE Foundation’s support of sci-ence, technology, engineering, and math, or STEM, education programs.

Tim and Pat Whited of Nederland, CO, took delivery of the new twin turbocharged sedan at McCaddon Cadillac in Boulder. They purchased the car Aug. 9 at Barrett-Jackson’s

Hot Nights Car Auction in Reno, NV. All proceeds of the $120,000 sale went to the SAE Foundation.

The Whiteds also received a per-formance driving school package as part of their winning bid.

“The choice to purchase the vehi-cle was a combination of this being a great opportunity to support the SAE Foundation and a great opportunity to obtain the first 2014 CTS,” said

Tim Whited, Director of Engineer-ing at Cortec Corp. “We saw the SAE Foundation/Cadillac display at Reno, then listened to the great presenta-tion…on the auction block. At that point, Pat and I looked at each other and decided to participate in the bid-ding—the rest is history.”

The rear-wheel-drive CTS Vsport is equipped with the all-new 420-hp 3.6-L Cadillac Twin-Turbo V-6 engine

and is the first Cadillac to receive the brand’s eight-speed automatic. The 2014 CTS Vsport—a new performance model positioned above the standard car but beneath the brand’s ultra-high performance V-Series cars—be-gan production earlier that month.

GM donated the Cadillac in May where Mary Barra, current General Motors Executive Vice President, Global Product Development and

Closing the gap in STEM education for minoritiesAs the U.S. celebrates Black History Month, the SAE Foundation has cho-sen to take a look at the significant disparity that persists in academia and industry among minorities. The dawning of the 21st century has brought with it a rise in the minor-ity proportion of the U.S. popula-tion. Minorities comprise more than 38% of our overall population, and that number is expected to increase over the next decade with the fast-est growing minority group being Hispanics, with an increase of more than 69%. Unfortunately, this growth is lost in STEM disciplines, where mi-nority groups are underrepresented compared to their fraction of the population.

Even though minorities have in-creased their share of degrees award-ed in the sciences, poor preparation in science and mathematics is a major factor limiting the appeal of science and engineering to even larger num-bers of these groups. A study by the National Action Council for Minori-

ties in Engineering Inc. on U.S. engi-neering degrees found that African-Americans, American Indians, and Latinos account for 34% of the total U.S. population (ages 18 to 24), but earn only 12% of all undergraduate degrees in engineering. In fact, the share of engineering degrees earned by those minority groups declines at higher educational levels: 12% bach-elor’s, 7% master’s, and 3% doctor-ates.

SAE Update 17 February 2014

The SAE Foundation seeks to pro-vide a network of resources, mentors, and real-world opportunities to help develop a workforce that not only reflects our nation’s evolving demo-graphic but also maintains our global competitiveness. The SAE Founda-tion accomplishes this by engaging and nurturing minorities with spe-cial program initiatives that reach all students regardless of school funding and cultural concerns.

These initiatives use SAE Interna-tional’s A World In Motion (AWIM) curriculum to engage students in science and engineering at a critical time in their development: learning years K-8. AWIM challenges students to work in teams to solve problems and create products while discover-ing the underlying math and science principles involved in the process.

Created in partnership with the National Society of Black Engineers (NSBE), the Summer Engineering Experience for Kids (SEEK) offers inner-city youth the opportunity to participate in a three-week science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) summer camp. Camps were held in 10 U.S. cities in 2013.
