Crankshaft can be found in any kind of reciprocating engine that translates linear piston motion into rotation. i.e. Engines ofHeavy duty truck, cars, racing car, bus, mini car, aircraft.

Conceptual design
•Major functions are fixed•Setting of Structural relationships of the principal components•Sufficient details to provide approximate costs, weights•Assured overall dimensions and feasibility of crank
Major crankshaft dimensions must be chosen early in the engine design process as they affect overall engine dimensions.

The virtual procedure of analysis:
1)Run full crank reduced model (dynamic) to calculate reactions and torques.2)Model entire crankshaft with FEM
3)Constrain the model at the flywheel end4)Run analysis applying all possible loads5)Scale and sum up the FE results for each crank angle

Test
fatigue through the crank web.fatigue through the pin journal, with the crack initiation starting at the oil hole. run calibration curve, calculate test strain levels, set control parameters, run test and inspect the specimen surface.

Quality improvement
Hardening- using induction hardened bearing surfacesFatigue strength- increased by using a radius at the ends of each main and crankpin bearingCounterweights-helps to negate the flexing of the crank
