Fig. 21 Powder forged connecting rod for 1.9 L automobile engine. A similar rod will be used in the modular engine. More

Fig. 961 Components of an experimental automotive connecting rod that fractured by overload during testing. (Shown also is the piston used in test.) The cast rod had the following composition: 9.0% Si, 1.2% Fe, 3.7% Cu, 0.3% Mg, 0.5% Ni, 1.0% Zn, 0.2% Ti, remainder Al. Note that the shaft More

Fig. 962 Fracture surface of the portion of the aluminum alloy connecting rod in Fig. 961 that was still attached to the piston after the test. It appears that each flange contains a chevron pattern, which suggests that there were two crack origins. This supports the theory that two More

Fig. 523 Surface of a fatigue fracture in a forged connecting rod of AISI 8640 steel with a hardness of 26 to 27 HRC throughout. The rod broke after approximately 84,000 km (52,000 miles) of service. The fatigue-crack origin is at the left edge, at the flash line of the forging, but no unusual More

Fig. 25 Forged 4337 steel master connecting rod for a reciprocating aircraft engine that failed by fatigue cracking in the bore section between the flanges. (a) Configuration and dimensions (given in inches). (b) Fractograph showing inclusions (arrows) and fatigue beach marks More

Fig. 36 Fracture surface of a hardened steel connecting rod. Arrows indicate large inclusions. Fatigue cracking initiated from the middle inclusion. More

Fig. 4 Failure of a connecting rod bolt in a diesel engine. In (a), the failed bolt is the upper one, having necked down in a nominally larger cross-sectional area. The lower bolt is another removed from the engine in unstretched condition. In (b), the stretched region of the bolt is shown More
