This paper deals with the static analysis of a composite crankshaft of a single cylinder 4-stroke petrol Engine. For a reference crankshaft of Royal Enfield Bullet 350 CC is considered; which is made from medium carbon steel. Carbon fiber/Epoxy is used as an alternative material for medium carbon steel. In this paper crankshaft is modeled by using CATIA-V5 software. Structural analysis has been done by using ANSYS workbench 18.2. Proper boundary conditions applied to evaluate the von-mises stress, von-mises strain and total deformation. The FEA results obtained are von-mises stress induced in the crankshaft is 268.66 and 204.99 Mpa respectively for medium carbon steel and carbon fiber/epoxy. The theoretical results obtained are von-mises stress 273.51 N/mm² Mpa and von-mises strain 0.0014. The validation of crankshaft is compared with the theoretical and FEA results of von-misses stress and strain are in the limits.
