Abstract

Abstract: Leafspring is one of the oldest and most effective suspension systems. Today it can be seen used in all heavy commercial vehicles the leaf spring used conventionally was made up of plain carbon steel, silicon manganese steel etc. but as steel is heavy it increases the overall weight of vehicles and decreases its performance, but nowadays after the advent of composites many researchers are trying to replace conventional leafspring with new composite leafsprings which are light in weight. In our project we are trying to compare and analyse two such composite material made up of bamboo fiber reinforced with s-glassfiber and bamboo fiber reinforced with e-glass fiber using epoxy resin matrix with conventional leafspring. Keywords: Bamboo fiber ,s-glass fiber, e-glass fiber, leafspring, epoxy resin
