Crankshafts of various processing stages were supplied by the manufacturer, from which two pieces of forged blanks were chosen as sources for C38p samples. Crankshafts of various processing stages were supplied by the manufacturer, from which two pieces of forged blanks were chosen as sources for C38p samples.
These were untouched by subsequent heat treatments or surface machining, thus allowing for the characterization of a material microstructure to be used as a baseline for subsequent heat treatment and property evolution. These were untouched by subsequent heat treatments or surface machining, thus allowing for the characterization of a material microstructure to be used as a baseline for subsequent heat treatment and property evolution.
Sample locations were strategically placed in the crankshafts to allow for necessary dimensions for the different testing equipment while staying as close as possible to bearing surfaces of interest, i.e. the section closest to the center rotation axis of the crank bearings.

Its method of subdivision are the eponymous finite elements, that (in a 3D case) can take the shape of tetrahedrons, pyramids, wedges and cuboids which are in turn defined through their vertex points, also called nodes.
Each finite element can be transformed through a matrix to ideal elements, in which the all properties such as stress, movement or temperature only exist at the nodes.\textcolor{red}{?? IMAGE}
Inbetween nodes, simple helper-functions interpolate the properties.
These can be linear for elements consisting of only vertex nodes, or polynomes if nodes are also located at the element's edges.
Since touching elements share nodes, and nodes of an element can describe the property continuum inside an element via a matrix, the matrices of all elements can be combined to a global matrix which describes the dependencies of inputs and results for one of the model's properties (e.g.\ stresses and strains).
