Abstract

In engine connecting rod plays a major role. It acts as a mediator between piston and crankshaft. It is used to convert the reciprocating motion of the piston to rotatory motion of the crank. Also it faces a lot of compressive loads in its life time. Mostl y connecting rods are manufactured using carbon steel and in these days aluminium alloys are using for the manufacture of connecting rod. In this work connecting rod is replaced by aluminium and glass laminated composite material called Glare. it also desc ribes the modeling and Fatigue analysis of connecting rod. SOLIDWORKS modeling software is used to generate the 3 - D solid model of Connecting rod. ANSYS software is used to analyze the connecting rod. The main aim of the project is to analysis the Fatigue strength of connecting rod by using composite materials
