Thickness of Leaf - (Measured in Meter) - Thickness of Leaf is defined as the thickness of each leaf present in a multi-leaf spring.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Force Applied at End of Leaf Spring: 37500 Newton --> 37500 Newton No Conversion Required
Length of Cantilever of Leaf Spring: 500 Millimeter --> 0.5 Meter (Check conversion here)
Modulus of Elasticity of Spring: 207000 Newton per Square Millimeter --> 207000000000 Pascal (Check conversion here)
Total Number of Leaves: 18 --> No Conversion Required
Nip in Leaf Spring: 13.5 Millimeter --> 0.0135 Meter (Check conversion here)
Thickness of Leaf: 12 Millimeter --> 0.012 Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

b = 2*P*L^3/(E*n*C*t^3) --> 2*37500*0.5^3/(207000000000*18*0.0135*0.012^3)

Evaluating ... ...

b = 0.107857641442958

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.107857641442958 Meter -->107.857641442958 Millimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

107.857641442958 ≈ 107.8576 Millimeter <-- Width of Leaf

Define Nip of the Spring?

The initial gap C between the extra full-length leaf and the graduated-length leaf before the assembly is called a ‘nip’. Such pre-stressing, achieved by a difference in radii of curvature, is known as ‘nipping’. Nipping is common in automobile suspension springs.
