Description
Summary:Using the Finite Element Method (FEM) in the SolidWorks software environment, the strain crankshaft state is modelled. The assessment of the adequacy of the model by experimental crankshaft in a running engine is complex and is possible for a small number of control points. The method shown proposes to replace the variable crankshaft strains in motion by examining a static strain state of the crankshaft. The results obtained show a high degree of adequacy of the model. The differences can be minimised by specifying the physical properties of the material used in the simulation, taking into account the elasticity of the supports.
