Classification NotesPage 25 <strong>of</strong> 41Section 6Calculation <strong>of</strong> Fatigue StrengthThe fatigue strength is to be understood as that value <strong>of</strong> equivalent alternating stress (VonMises) which a crankshaft can permanently withstand at the most highly stressed points.The fatigue strength may be evaluated by means <strong>of</strong> the following formulae:Related to the crankpin diameter:σDW K.0.2785 B 196 10.42.σ 39.3.0.264 1.073.D .
