In this study, static load analysis was performed on two proposed models of connecting rods (conventional and Y-shape con-rod) intended for use in the crank-rocker engine. The analysis was done by modeling the model using CATIA V5 software which was then analyzed using ANSYS Workbench 14.0 software....
