Abstract

In this study, a simulation will be carried out that analyzes the dynamic motion of the Tight lock coupler on the LRT train. This analysis aims to get the angle value at different curvature radius. The bend radius of the selected railroad tracks is R87, R95, and R1100. The Autodesk Inventor simulation’s angle values will be compared with the AAR M 1001 (Association Of American Railroads) Standard. Based on these standards, it has been determined that the resulting angle limit should not exceed 13° because this will make the coupler detached. Based on the results of the dynamic coupler motion simulation, the largest angle produced is 9.36° at R95.
