  Study on Crankshaft Failure: A Review

  By Jayendra B Kanani, Shivang S Jani

  Abstract: Crankshafts are power shafts of engines with a complex geometry having crankwebs and crankpins. Crankshafts axis is offset from the centre. It converts the linear (reciprocating) motion of pistons into a rotary motion that can be transmitted through a drive line system. A crankshaft is subjected to several forces that vary in magnitude and direction (multiaxial loading). Bending stress and shear stress due to twisting are also common stresses acting …
