Heavy loads at low speeds, particularly in diesel engines, will amplify the compression forces, which the connecting-rod structure can better support than the thrust forces. It is obvious that at very low speeds, the behaviour of some bearings will be close to the behaviour of the rigid connecting-rod bearing. It is suitable to be very cautious before generalizing the conclusions: they are related to the considered load diagram (case of rapid petrol engine) and to a particular connecting-rod shape.

The main approaching hypotheses (e.g., plane deformation, short bearing theory, isoviscosity) must not be forgotten, even though they appear, in a first approximation, as reasonable. The present study represents, from the theoretical viewpoint, a new stage in the analysis of bearing characteristics under realistic conditions.
