Abstract
Connecting rod is a significant element in internal combustion engine. The main tenacity of a connecting rod is transmission of the reciprocating motion of the piston to the rotary motion of the crankshaft. There are dissimilar materials and production methods are used to manufacture a connecting rod. Connecting rods are commonly composed of steel alloy or aluminum alloy or titanium alloy and it is usually manufactured by drop forging process. This article explains the finite element analysis of connecting rod. In the present work, connecting rod is made of materials forged 4340 AISI Steel, TiAl4V Titanium alloy and 7075 Aluminum alloy for sport utility vehicles (SUV) were compared on the basis of total deformation, Von Mises stress, and Von Mises strain. A two-dimensional drawing is prepared from the calculations. A parametric model of connecting rod is modeled using SOLID WORKS 16.0 software. Analysis is carried out by using ANSYS workbench 16.0 software. The best combinations of parameters like Von Mises stress and strain, deformation, etc. for four-wheeler connecting rod were done in ANSYS workbench16.0 and finally, results are compared with different material.
