This research aimed to study the design and development to assist in bringing the car seat into the production process and the risk assessment approach to ergonomics to suit operator. Emphasizing the importance of work and trying to create design tools. Organize work appropriately in accordance with the competency and performance of each individual. Using the principles of biomechanics analysis applied in the analysis along with an assessment of the risks by taking into consideration upon 3 factors. 1. The level of severity. 2. The level of frequency.3. Safety measures at the different parts of the body due to which the body must be borne from the outside and in the work. By bringing knowledge of mechanics the proportion of the body anatomy and physiology is able to create the relationship in a model way of Ergonomics which occurs according to the gesture. The use of tools lifting heavy parts and labor pull push and press researchers found in the process of lifting car seat weighs 14.5 kg dimensions width 45 cm length 55 cm and 100 cm in height is the distance of the car seat to shelve. Assembly point distance of 200 cm research has fixed this issue by adjusting the distance of the car seat and shelves by only 50 cm distance can be reduced down to 150 cm and adjust the position of the lifting cushion to reduce twisting torso while assess the biomechanics model of the behavior of all employee in improvement on quality both before and after work station.

Nowadays an automotive industry steadily has been growing and playing a major role on economy development for many years. The crash box is one of the most important parts for safety but it was found that the crash boxes manufactured domestically are not met international standard requirements. This is due to process and material limitation. This process for automotive safety test requires high budget and there is unclear approach for specific test. Therefore a study of crash boxes referred to energy absorption project was conducted as the alternative materials for product. Consequently this project was aimed to design and test crash boxes which made from the diversity of the alternative materials such as aluminum aluminum reinforced by foam resin reinforced by fiberglass resin reinforced by water hyacinth and resin reinforced by water hyacinth and husk. In addition it was also emphasized in studying energy absorption behavior and physical deformation of crash boxes after dynamic and static energy being applied. The experimental works were applied for these tests in partly referenced to US NCAP and ECE R29 standard for automobile collision test. Testing all types of crash boxes indicated that the aluminum reinforced by foam type was able to absorb energy at 189 MJ/m3. It is higher than resin reinforced by water hyacinth and husk at 1 MJ/m3 as 188 times. Furthermore the comparison of the energy absorption (per unit volume) between the aluminum reinforced by foam type and the steel type from the previous project equivalent 20 MJ/m3 found that it is 8.45 times of difference. While the front impact test was not successful because the size of crash boxes was not suitable for the energy volume. It was a cause for non-available calculation of energy absorption value.

The aim of this research is to create the center of mass testing machine for vehicles with maximum mass 3000 kilograms. By the performance of this machine is able to determine the center of mass 3 axis by horizontal longitudinal and vertical. On the other hand the verities of mass from 50 to 250 kilograms and the several of weight distribution at horizontal and longitudinal are applied to the condition of testing for reasonable to the position of the center of gravity for vehicle. The result of research discovered to the performance of center of mass tester was activated following to test conditions. Furthermore the position of the horizontal of center of gravity depends on the weight distribution at horizontal axis and an increasing of mass under non-uniform along the longitudinal and horizontal axis. In term of the position of the longitudinal of center of gravity the weight distribution at longitudinal axis and an increasing of mass rate are points. Otherwise the weight distribution at longitudinal axis and an increasing of mass are effect to the position of the vertical of center of gravity.

This research proposes a Bayesian logistic regression model which is applied to the data from autoparts manufacturing machines. Factors related to defective and bad products are investigated. The proposed model is compared with the logistic regression using maximum likelihood method for parameter estimation. The data were collected from 132 machines in an autoparts manufacturing factory. The research found that useful life machine type 6 worker group 3 and 4 working step 1 and 2 influence to the risk of producing defective and bad products. When the useful life is increased by 1 month the risk of producing defective and bad products will be increased by 2.2%. The risk that the machine type 6 will produce defective and bad products is 4.078 times greater than the risk that the machine type will do. The risk that the worker group 3 will produce defective and bad products is 61.7% less than the risk that the worker group 12 will do. The risk that the worker group 4 will produce defective and bad products is 61.5% less than the risk that the worker group 12 will do. The risk that the working step 1 will produce defective and bad products is 2.831 times greater than the risk that the working step 4 will do. The risk that the working step 2 will produce defective and bad products is 13.8 % greater than the risk that the working step 4 will do. The parameter estimates from the Bayesian logistic regression are very close to the ones from the logistic regression using maximum likelihood method for parameter estimation

Admittedly a disc brake plays an important role in the auto part industry since it concerns directly with safety. Therefore the wide range of disc brake has been designed in order to develop its heat ventilation. Thus this project has designed a back-vented brake disc which is difference the current one (front-vented) and tried to create the test to find out the temperature diffusion of the disc brake with the hope to evaluate the coefficient of the heat convection varied by the temperature changing in both kinds of brakes under the forced heat convection in the steady condition. However the steady heat conduction and radiation value will not be counted because it is insignificant. The JASO C406: 2000 Standard is adopted as a guideline in the test. The outcome coefficient of heat conduction will be used in the simulation via the Finite Element Method (FEM) in order to study the temperature diffusion and heat ventilation of both kinds of brakes at each temperature level. Consequently the experimental work reveals then the heat convection coefficients of both kinds are unidirectional. The heat convection coefficient of the front-vented disc brake is 4.40 % in average higher than that of the back-vented disc brake. From the simulation the front-vented disc brake can ventilate the heat better than the back-vented disc brake at 3.02 % in average. It can be summarized that the front-vented disc brake has more temperature difference than the back-vented disc brake. Hence the front-vented disc brake likely gets more stress from the temperature than the back-vented disc brake and might be damaged during the operation more than the another type. Therefore this is tendency that the back-vented is safer than the front-vented brake disc for usage.
