Connecting rod is one of the important components of whole engine assembly as it acts as a mediator between piston assembly and crankshaft.It's converting the reciprocating motion of the piston to rotary of the crank.Also, it faces a lot of tensile and compressive loads during its working condition.Generally connecting rods are manufactured using carbon steel and in recent days aluminum alloy are finding its applications in connecting rod.Here connecting rod material is been checked with different materials like aluminum based composite material reinforced with boron carbide by designing and modeling also describes the analysis.for designing of connecting rod solid works 2020 version is used and for analysis is based on Solid works 2020.the main theme of the work is to analyze the stress, strain deformation of connecting rod by varying the material with same geometry.KEYWORD'S: Connecting rod, Analysis of connecting rod, four stroke engine, Aluminum alloy reinforced with boron carbide, solid works. 1.INTRODUCTION :In a reciprocating piston engine, the connecting rod or conrod connects the piston to the crank or crankshaft.Together with the crank, they form a simple mechanism that converts linear motion into rotating motion.Connecting rods may also convert rotating motion into linear motion.Historically, before the development of engines, they were first used in this way driving machinery from water wheels.As a connecting rod is rigid, it may transmit either a push or a pull and so the rod may rotate the crank through both halves of a revolution, i.e., piston pushing and piston pulling.Earlier mechanisms, such as chains, could only pull.In a few two-stroke engines, the connecting rod is only required to push.Today, connecting rods are best known through their use in internal combustion piston engines, such as car engines.These are of a distinctly different design from earlier forms of connecting rods, used in steam engines and steam locomotives. 1.HISTORYThe earliest evidence for a connecting rod appears in the late 3rd century AD Roman Hierapolis sawmills.It also appears in two 6th century Eastern Roman saw mills excavated at Ephesus respectively Gerasa.The crank and connecting rod mechanism of these Roman watermills converted the rotary motion of the waterwheel into the linear movement of the saw blades.The first steam engines, Newcomen's atmospheric engine, were single-acting: its piston only did work in one direction, and so these used a chain rather than a connecting rod.Their output rocked back and forth, rather than rotating continuously.
