Abstract

The article discusses the causes of fatigue cracking of the top cap plate in the leaf spring used in heavy-duty vehicles. The results of the experimental studies conducted on the special test stand are presented. Next, the results of the numerical analysis of the top plate were discussed and finally compared with the results of the experiment.
