Abstract:
The wall thickness and strengthen muscle of motorcycle crankcase box influences its structure intensity directly. The static model of crankcase box of a magnesium alloy material is established by finite element method. The structure is analyzed with I-DEAS, the reason the crankcase box is crazed is pointed out. The structure is rebuilt, the intensity is increased remarkablely, the cost of manufacture is reduced largely. And the capability of a originally material, i.e. aluminium alloy is validated.
