Study On the Design of High-Power Engines Crankshafts

Abstract

This chapter reports some useful criteria for the design of high-power engine crankshafts. Theoretical, numerical FEM –Finite Element Modelling and experimental procedures will be considered. The comparison among the three approaches (Theoretical, Numerical and Experimental –TNE) will allow the designer to increase confidence during the production phase of the components, and increase reliability and structural health.
