SAE Mobilus

SAE Mobilus is a repository of technical content published by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) that includes books, technical papers, journal articles, and standards.

Our subscription only includes access to SAE Technical Papers from 1998 to current and the SAE Ground Vehicle Standards/USCAR Reports. The default search goes to the index for ALL content from SAE, not just what we pay for. If you are asked to pay for access or see no option to download an item, this means that we may not have access to it. You can request these materials through interlibrary loan or ask a librarian for additional help.
