Merauke Regency is one of the largest rice producers in Papua Province with a total production of 344,192.32 tons in 2020, a harvested area of 61,584 ha and a rice productivity of 5.59 tons/ha. Agricultural development in Merauke Regency is supported by the availability of agricultural land and the modernization of agricultural equipment. The post-harvest process is the final phase that is key to success, so it must be handled properly to achieve maximum results once the post-harvest rice begins with the rice harvest. The rice harvest must be supported by a robust transport vehicle in wet and muddy fields. Vehicles with caterpillar drive wheels are compatible because the ground pressure is lower. The design of the rice transport vehicle selects the track wheel type as the drive wheel so that it can be used on wet and muddy surfaces. The vehicle chassis is designed for the transport of 1000-1500 kg of rice. The construction and analysis are simulated with Autodesk Inventor software; the Chasis model is analyzed for strength using the finite element method.

“…he technological advancements in motorcycles have been continuously increasing and even surpassing the technology in the automotive industry (Maddaiah & Reddy, 2018). In 2019, more than 30% of electric motorcycles had already gained significant market share (Spanoudakis et al, 2020), while it is well-known that gasoline-powered motorcycles are the commonly used vehicles (Sariman et al, 2019). This proves the rapid development of motorcycle technology (G & Dr.K.Vasantha Kumar, 2021).…”

The swing arm is one of the main components of a motorcycle that functions as a connection between the rear wheel and the frame. Under loading conditions, the joint area between the arm and the bridge experiences significant stress, leading to fractures in that region. This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of installing gussets to reduce the stress that occurs at the joint area between the arm and the bridge in the swing arm of ELGO electric motorcycles. The research was conducted using the static analysis simulation method with Solidworks 2021-2022 Research License software. The loading conditions were simulated based on the actual usage of the electric motorcycle. The simulation results revealed that without the installation of gussets, the joint area between the arm and the bridge in the swing arm experienced stress exceeding the yield strength of the material. This would inevitably lead to the breakage of the swing arm and potentially cause accidents for motorcycle riders. However, after the gussets were installed, the stress at the joint area between the arm and the bridge remained below the yield strength of the material. Based on these findings, it can be concluded that the installation of gussets successfully reduced the stress at the joint area between the arm and the bridge in the swing arm. This research outcome can serve as a reference for the design of swing arms for electric motorcycles.
