About this ebook
Practical Piston Engine Design Methods is a textbook aimed at engineering students that turns theory into practical skills applied to piston engine design. Drawing on both academic and industrial experience, it offers a hands-on, methodical approach focused on developing a mindset oriented toward failure prevention and the control of key factors affecting reliability and performance. Following an Inside-Out Design logic, it guides the reader through the design and structural analysis of the cylinder head, piston, crankshaft, connecting rod, and crankcase, with in-depth discussions of flow aerodynamics, thermal issues, vibrations, lubrication, and bearing sizing. The integration of Finite Element Analysis, GT-Power simulations, real-world examples (such as Moto3) and references to the work of engineers and designers like Mauro Forghieri provides a comprehensive view of the development process and helps shape critical and technically aware engineers.
