Abstract
The article analyzes the causes of failures of vehicle structures belonging to complex systems. In order to ensure the operational reliability and operability of freight rolling stock, namely the supporting frames of automotive cargo semi-trailers and trailers during their operation. The chosen topic is relevant today, because the automotive industry is firmly in the lead in the transport industry. It is known that the quality of transportation is determined by the technical conditions of rolling stock. This is especially important if the rolling stock is represented by vehicles The reliability of freight rolling stock was studied, taking into account 2000 hours of experimental tests at the machine-test station during transport works, including 3.5 thousand loading and unloading cycles, which is 50% of the operating time. It is noted that the organization of transport work of the machine-test station does not exactly coincide with the real operating conditions, which affects the reliability indicators: for example, readiness and average failure time increase, and failure decreases. Structural analysis of the fault complex is an important part of a comprehensive system to ensure the reliability and survivability of the supporting frame of the car trailer. Generally speaking, the main causes of metal failures are manufacturing defects (production stage) and design errors (design stage), and the overall failure rate due to poor design and production quality can be over 50%. The analysis of the causes of failure of welded metal structures shows that the influence of a single factor on its frequency in emergency situations, factors related to stress concentration and subsequent development of cracks, is up to half. Of these, breakdowns due to design defects at the design stage and poor quality of manufacture and assembly of machines are about a quarter each, and due to low technology and low quality materials - more than a third, due to violations of vehicle rules and low quality staff - every tenth .
