Crankshaft is the one of the most important components in internal combustion engines, it converts the translation motion of piston generated due to gas force into rotational moment of engine shaft though oscillatory motion of connecting rod. It mostly experiences the bending and torsional moment. The present research is focused on investigation of alternative material for crankshafts. Material EN19 is considered in this study and strength performance is verified under different operating conditions. Analytical design calculations, 3D modelling and analysis of EN19 crankshaft is carried out under maximum bending moment and maximum torque. 3D modeling and analysis was done in Creo parametric software and Ansys respectively. The compressive stresses, Von-Mises stresses, shear stresses and deformation in crankshaft are found to be within the permissible limits. Result shows cost effective material EN19 can be used as one of the alternative materials for crankshaft as it satisfies the all-strength requirements.

“…Crankshafts have a shaft component that resonates inside the primary bearings, crankpins are connected to the large ends of connecting rods, and crank palms or web are used to link the crankpins as well as shaft considerations by Sandeep et al [5]. The goal of the project is to format and produce a crankshaft for a four-cylinder IC engine utilising theoretical calculations in the format area for Aluminium alloys 6061 and commercial enterprise grade by Mukherjee et al [6] The effects of different punch structure, maximum liquid pressure and the radius of the die corner on the forming quality of half-three-way tube parts were compared and analysed [7].…”

Optimization tools are used when a set of objectives is used to find the best alternative proposed design. Topology optimization adds a whole new level of process of developing creative design space. The objective of topology design is to obtain a material distribution inside a given design space that is optimum in this aspect. Material is rearranged and elements that are not necessary from an objective point of view are eliminated throughout the optimization process. For Topology optimization of the forged component which is selected from industry which is steering knuckle assembly is optimized and presented in this study. For topology optimization, platform such as 3D experience is used to simulate the part. A number of modules from 3D experience is used for FEA analysis, mesh-smoothening techniques and creating parametric geometry in terms of shape and explored in way to produce the topology geometry more functional. Functional Generative Design module is used for topology optimization. From this study overall weight reduction is achieved after using the finite element method to analyze a steering knuckle assembly and performing topology optimization. And the part is optimized in terms of shape and for further suitable manufacturing process. According to the result of this research, 64% relative weight reduction is achieved in respect to a given target is 50%. The original weight of the knuckle was 843 gm. however it has since been reduced to 513 gm. As a result, the cost of knuckle is lowered.
