🔍 Key Concepts

• four-stroke cycle sequence (intake, compression, power, exhaust) and how many crankshaft revolutions that takes • how gas pressure on the piston pushes or pulls through the connecting rod • difference between axial loads (tension/compression along the rod) and bending loads (if the rod is misaligned or side-loaded)

💭 Think About

• For each of the four strokes, is the piston being pushed toward the crankshaft or pulled away from it? How does that affect whether the rod is in tension or compression? • In a four-stroke engine, how many crankshaft revolutions occur per full cycle, and how many times per cycle do large forces act on the connecting rod? • In a properly aligned engine, is the connecting rod primarily designed to carry straight axial load or to bend? What does that tell you about the most realistic loading description?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify how many crank revolutions per full four-stroke cycle and how many load events happen per revolution. • Check which strokes have high cylinder pressure (and which don’t) and how that pressure direction loads the rod. • Consider whether the rod is intended to take significant bending in normal operation, or mainly axial (tension/compression) load.
