Abstract

The internal combustion engine should be enlarged the cylinder diameter for the Power requirements. In order to ensure the engine to work normally, it is needed to compute the strength of the connecting rod. Through adopting ANSYS software, the three-dimensional computational model is constructed, and the stress analysis is carried out. We can learn the stress field of process of deformation. Through calculation the stress and strength of connecting rod are derived. Using the stress which was calculated from ANSYS we can decide the Safety of connecting rod. In general, the analysis is meaningful to optimize the design of connecting rod.
