Stresses in crankshaft

Crank pin- acts like a simply supported beam, with a distributed load acting along its length and varies with crank position.

Crank web is like a cantilever  subjected to bending and twisting.
Journals will be subjected to bending and twisting.
Hoop tensile stresses also acting on shrink fit parts

Why atomisation test should not be done in slide type fuel valves

Since very small needle lift is obtained in the test equipment result in an unequal pressure distribution in the cut off shaft resulting in a hard contact in a small area along with high frequency oscillations, low lubricity of test oil will increase the chance of seizure. Full lift and high lubricity of heavy oil eliminates this risk  of seizure during normal operation.( Always open and clean slide type valves before testing as cold sticky heavy oil along with small clearances can cause restriction in the movement of the spindle).
