Abstract

This study used the method of finite element for modeling and analyzing the structure of the AC frame. Moreover, software was also applied to do a calculation and displayed an illustration of a prediction of the real phenomenon. The process of modeling the AC frame was carried out by utilizing software inventor, and followed by a meshing process and a simulation by employing software ansys. The simulation was done by giving four different load cases based on the standard of UIC 566 that regulates the calculation of load for each component of the train car body. This study has three outputs comprised of von-misses stress, maximum vertical deflection, and value of safety factor. Based on the simulation, the combined load potentially could cause a maximum stress at the stiffener frame AC namely 81,2, MPa, and maximum vertical deflection was 1,015 mm at the carline due to longitudinal load. In addition, the value of the minimum safety factor occurred when the combined load reached 3.0176 during the simulation of the AC frame. The value is considered safe due to under the permitted voltage based on the regulation of the Ministry of Transportation Number 175 in the year of 2015 namely 75% of 245 MPa (allowed voltage for material SS400), namely 183,75 MPa.
