Design Analysis and Structural Prediction of Bus Driver Chair Support: A Study Case using HOQ and FEM

The bus driver's comfort is crucial. location of the seat, which correlated with seat support design, one elements supporting his comfort. business chosen as a representative PT Selamet Trans Abadi, has its headquarters in Pati City, Central Java. By considering Safety Factor, House Quality (HOQ), weight, shape, and dimensions, this study intends to ascertain how characteristics form after receiving load or force. Conducting field visit gather necessary data initial step research. following stage decide on design criteria based collected data. Next, use Solidwork model design. Using Finite Element Method (FEM), program can investigate characteristics. loading simulation under consideration includes clutch engagement, brake application, whether static stationary. validation two journals then run validate findings. constant chair fulfills typical value, according study's findings, whereas 1 most fracture-prone. outcomes supports 2 3 demonstrate that strength weak since it subjected an unequal load.
