Abstract: Crankshaft is an automobile engine component that converts the reciprocating motion to rotational motion. Forces acting on piston transfers to the crankshaft through the connecting rod. Besides static forces, dynamic forces acting on the crankshaft causes failure and induce stresses. Dynamic forces lead to Fatigue failures, which are unpredictive in nature. Modelled system is used to obtain the optimized values of Crankshaft Diameter and Crank radius for achieving a life of infinity cycles for crankshaft. Modelled Simulink system can be used as a virtual Piston, connecting rod and Crankshaft assembly and can perform the analysis. The main objective of this project is modelling a Simulink system to optimize the specifications of crankshaft.
