Abstract:
Fish Car Unej (FCU) Mudskip is a car designed with a rural terrain system, especially for fishing transportation. FCU Mudskip uses leaf spring suspension at the rear to support the weight of the vehicle, that is leaning towards the rear. The load of the vehicle is inclined to the rear due to the car carrying system in the form of fish and water. This conveying system can cause leaf spring failure. Therefore, this study aims to determine the value of stress, strain and cycle on leaf springs. Ansys 18.1 software was used to obtain stress, strain, and leaf spring cycle values with a thickness of

Now a day the fuel efficiency and emission gas regulation of automobiles are two most important issues. To fulfil this problem many automobile industries are trying to make new vehicle which can provide high efficiency with low cost. The best way to increase the fuel efficiency is to reduce the weight of the vehicle. By Introducing better material, design optimization and better manufacturing processes, the weight reduction can be achieved. A composite material leaf spring is a very good replacement for conventional steel spring by achieving weight reduction with adequate improvement of mechan

This study describes the effects of bounce, brake, and roll behavior of a bus toward its leaf spring suspension systems. Parabolic leaf springs are designed based on vertical deflection and stress; however, loads are practically derived from various modes especially under harsh road drives or emergency braking. Parabolic leaf springs must sustain these loads without failing to ensure bus and passenger safety. In this study, the explicit nonlinear dynamic finite element (FE) method is implemented because of the complexity of experimental testing A series of load cases; namely, vertical push, wi

Experimental tests showed good accordance with the numerical prediction, justifying the goodness of the spring design, in terms of both static stiffness and strength. As a second test case

Abstract Vibration-related failures more frequently occur than material failures, analysis is crucial to the design of composite leaf springs. It must also have an outstanding fatigue life and be lightweight. To minimize vertical vibrations, hits, and bumps caused by irregular roads and to ensure a comfortable ride, springs are essential suspension components in automobiles. Hence, the material with the highest strength and lowest longitudinal elastic modulus is ideal for use in leaf springs. In the automotive business nowadays, composite materials primarily replace metal elements. Consequentl

Commercial vehicles are mostly equipped with pneumatic spring elements which lead to a perfect height levelling and spring rate adjustment under different loading conditions. However, pneumatic springs are not common in light commercial vehicles where passive spring elements, e.g. single- and multi-leaf springs, are still be used. Since those vehicles are covering a wide range of different loads the spring elements frequently exhibit a progressive spring characteristic, i.e. the spring rate is adjusted under deflection as soon as the load is increased.
