The crank in the slider-crank mechanism shown in Fig. 12.27 rotates at a constant clockwise angular speed of 1000 rpm. Find the stresses in the connecting rod and the crank when the pressure acting on the piston is 200 psi and θ = 30° The diameter of the piston is 12 in. and the material of the mechanism is steel. Model the connecting rod and the crank by one beam element each. The lengths of the crank and connecting rod are 12 in. and 48 in., respectively
