Abstract
The elastic mechanical strength of the large and medium reciprocating engine test benches, is calculated for vertical and horizontal bendings and for torsion. The dynamic loads - horizontal vibrating forces and vertical vibrating couples (bending and torsion) and horizontal vibrating couple,- and the static loads, - distributed weight of the bench itself and the machinery and the motor torque (torsion), - are analyzed. It is pointed out that the bench body of reinforced concrete is submitted to bending moments and shearing forces and to torsion couples. This paper is the continuation of the paper “Dynamic Loads in Engine Test Benches” in 12th Biennial ASME Conference on Mechanical Vibration and Noise.
