The purpose of this study is to predict the fatigue life of a lower arm as a vehicle is driven on a straight and turn roads. The measurement of strain signals was carried out by attaching a strain gauge to the left lower arm and driving it with an acceleration of 30 km/h. According to the results, the lowest fatigue life was obtained just as the vehicle turned clockwise, which was 2.6E+6 cycles to failure. This value was lower by 123% and 1,862% than it was driven straight and counter-clockwise. Similarity, when the vehicle turned to the right, the lower arm on the left side received a higher strain, contributing to a shorter fatigue life.

This study aims to predict the fatigue life of the AISI 1513 carbon steel as the material for the vehicle lower arm subjected to road strains. Measurement of the strain signals was done by attaching a strain gauge at the left lower arm and driving the vehicle on clockwise and counter-clockwise roads at a speed of 30 km/h. According to the results based on the strain-life approach, the clockwise road gave the fatigue life of 2,600,000 cycles to failure, which was 1,862 % lower than the counter-clockwise road. It indicated that when the vehicle turned to the right, the lower arm on the left side subjected to a higher strain, resulting in a shorter fatigue life.

Coconut Shell actived Nanocarbon to Lightweight Concrete have done. LWC mixture of CS actived nanocarbon fillers made by mixing PPC cement, sand, broken stone, coconut shell actived nanocarbon fillers and water in various proportions. The ratio of CS actived nanocarbon on filler used (x = 0%, 5%, 10%, and 15%), with the aim of getting a different level of compressive strength testing. The particle size of activated CS carbon using the high temperature physical activation method 800C and chemistry (immersion of ZnCl2 solution) has an average diameter of 4,842.8 nm. The SEM shows that high porosity occurs and the shape is not homogeneous. EDS analysis to determine composition of the elements in the sample is known that the CS activated carbon samples have a maximum value in the element Carbon, Oxygen. The sample of CS actived Nanocarbon to LWC x = 0%, the results of the maximum value of % mass and % atom are the elements Oxygen, Carbon, and Calcium. For x = 10% the maximum value are the elements Oxygen, Carbon, and Silicon. The value of the strength of the objects in the CS activated carbon filler concrete sample (x = 5%) has maximum strength value 12.9 Mpa.
