Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Dynamics of Reciprocating Engines
The problem of the forces which exist in reciprocating engines has many points of interest not usually considered by engineers. It is customary to consider that the pressure on the piston is transmitted unchanged, or only slightly modified by the angularity of the connecting-rod, to the crank-pin, and the moving parts are designed with reference to this pressure.
