Abstract

Suspension is the most important thing that must be taken into account because it greatly affects driving comfort on the road. The working mechanism of the suspension consisting of spiral springs and shock absorbers is loaded vertically from the weight of the body, driver, and passengers. The uneven shape of the road surface in the form of potholes or bumps will greatly affect the comfort of the driver. This study aims to determine the effect of suspension work and the optimal value of vibration that occurs on one of the wheels of the vehicle against vertical dynamic loads. The method used in this study uses the Taguchi method which is used to determine the optimum dynamic load conditions against vibration in the suspension system.   The characteristics used in this method are "Smaller is better". Several variables such as bump height, tire pressure on the wheels, as well as vehicle body weight and passenger weight are necessary factors to calculate optimal dynamic load conditions against vibration in the suspension. Based on the results of the optimum value conditions obtained, namely the height of the mound of 5 cm, tire pressure of 32 Psi, load of 84 kg, and dynamic load of 71 kg. From the results of the contribution rate to the ANOVA obtained, factor A (bump height) and factor D (dynamic load) are significant factors while factor B (tire pressure) and factor C (load load) are insignificant factors. Under optimal conditions, there was a decrease in suspension vibration value by 49.65%.

Abstract

Composites are one of the material engineering technologies developed today because composites can combine several material properties that differ in characteristics into new properties by the planned design. The purpose of this study was to determine the mechanical properties of the influence of the combined arrangement of lamina angle variations and the composition of fiber and matrix mixtures. This study uses polyester resin, catalyst, and sisal fiber as materials in the manufacture of composite materials. In specimen manufacturing refers to ASTM D 638-02 type 3 test standard for tensile tests. The tensile test results of sisal fiber lamina composite materials assuming a composition ratio of 5% fiber and 95% resin produce maximum tensile stress of m = 16.9854 N/mm2 and a maximum strain of ɛ = 4.5232% while assuming a composition ratio of 15% fiber 85% resin produces maximum tensile stress of sm = 40.1422 N/mm2 and maximum strain of ɛ = 8.9744 %, Based on the test results, the addition of fiber mixture composition increases the tensile strength and toughness of the material. The composition of 5% fiber 95% and 15% fiber 85% resin (15S-85R)produces a maximum tensile stress of sm =  45.1823 N/mm2 and a maximum strain of ɛ = 9.6849 % with a maximum load Fm = 10902.4996 N. The more fiber contained in the sisal fiber lamina composite material, the higher the tensile stress produced, this shows the tension is directly proportional to the number of fibers contained in the composite.
