Abstracts: The connecting rod is most critical part in the design of engine. The client is facing problem with the life of connecting rod. It takes failure in engine before completing its desired design life. So we are trying to improve the performance of connecting rod and its design parameters. In current scenario it becomes necessary to analyze engine connecting rod for its performance and safety purpose. In current project a forged fracture split connecting rod is used in medium duty automobile engine. In existing design of this product there is a problem that before completing the expected life it takes failure in engine. So it becomes too necessary to investigate that which a technical reason responsible for its failure. It is also necessary to find out stress, strain generated at maximum loading condition and at which place the deformation will take place. It is also necessary to find out natural frequency and it should be compare with operating frequency.
