← TechnologyDuring rapid engine deceleration, which mechanism results from reduced torsional damping in crankshafts?
A)Resonance-induced fatigue cracking✓
B)Increased laminar lubricating oil flow
C)Lowered connecting rod stress
D)Enhanced valvetrain synchronization
💡 Explanation
Torsional vibration issues increase in the crankshaft during abrupt deceleration; the *torsional resonance* is exacerbated because cylinder firing impulses cease abruptly. This causes high-stress fluctuations, therefore torsional fatigue cracking is more likely, rather than altered lubrication or valvetrain function.
