Technical operation factors influence on bus body durability

Introduction. The purpose of the work is to study the causes of corrosion destruction of bus bodies of the enterprise. In the course of work, it was revealed that the main causes of intensive corrosion destruction of bus bodies are insufficiently high corrosion resistance of metals used in the manufacture of the body frame. The main places of occurrence of foci of corrosion of the body are: wheel arches; rear and lower parts of the bus, which are more susceptible to adverse road conditions; the upper and lower parts of the window openings in case of violation of the tightness of the seal. In the course of the study, initial data were obtained to determine the conditions and factors determining condensation on the cooled surfaces of bus bodies entering the indoor parking area; a set of organizational and technical measures aimed at reducing the intensity of corrosion wear of the company’s vehicle bodies was developed.

Materials and methods. The results of observations of changes in the technical condition of bus bodies, parameters of their maintenance conditions were used, methods of a priori ranking of factors and classification were used. The results and recommendations on the technical operation of bus bodies are described.

Results. As intermediate results of the conducted research, the data on the influence of the technical condition of bus bodies on the indicators of technical operation were obtained, which make it possible to justify the modes of maintenance and storage of motor vehicles. The data obtained make it possible to simulate the processes affecting the technical condition of bus bodies, which is the basis for the development of optimization measures.

Discussion. It is noted that the approach implemented during the study enables to establish a set of factors affecting the technical condition of bus bodies, and to determine the consequences of premature achievement of the limit state by the elements of the load-bearing structure.

Conclusion. As a generalizing conclusion, it is noted that the practical implementation of the developed methodology ensures the development and implementation of sound measures to increase their durability in the practical activities of road transport enterprises.
