Possibilities of use of springs from long-fiber glass reinforced composites in suspensions of road and rail freight vehicles
Original language description
On the basis of recent advances in research and development, long fiber glass reinforced polymers (GRP) can be considered to be used in new areas of engineering machinery applications. Some specific properties of GRP materials like low specific weight, high strength, suitable or even excellent fatigue properties and low E-modulus are the most important characteristics enabling their use for special heavy-duty machinery components, like road-friendly leaf springs and suspensions including those for highcapacity trailers or freight wagons. A necessity to adopt new design and development approaches, different from those being commonly used for designs with steels is discussed in the paper. On the basis of extensive laboratory static, dynamic and fatiguemeasurements, performed as a next step of FEM calculations, advantages and possible problems resulting from the new material applications are shown.
