Synopsis Fusion

The document summarizes a student project to design and optimize the shape of a connecting rod using finite element analysis. The objectives are to reduce manufacturing costs and time by optimizing the shape. The connecting rod components that will be designed and optimized include the body, bush, pins, studs, washers, and bearings. Shape optimization techniques will be used to decrease material usage and increase profits by reducing material costs. The project will use Autodesk Fusion 360 to optimize the connecting rod shape. Upon completion, the objectives of designing, assembling, and optimizing the connecting rod shape to industry standards will be met.

SYNOPSIS
Objective
The objective of the project is to reduce the manufacturing cost and the time consumed by an
individual/organization on making an integral part of a machinery such as a connecting rod
by using the techniques of shape optimization and various other analysis.

Design
The integral components of a connecting rod that are to be designed are:-
 Connecting rod body
 Bush
 Pin
 Stud
 Washer
 Distance Pin
 Bearing Brasses
 Pin
 Stud
 Nut
 Split Pin

Shape Optimization
It is a process in which the objective is to find the optimal shape for a design to sustain a
certain load which the object is subjected to.
This process is used in major manufacturing industries to decrease the amount of materials
used in an object by which the organization can decrease the amount of materials used in the
object which in turn will increase the profit of the company by decreasing the direct material
costs.
In the project our team will optimise the shape of a connecting rod using the software
Autodesk Fusion 360.

such the designing, assembling and the shape optimization of the part by the industry
standards.
