Which of the following construction methods is not used to calculate the velocity and acceleration of reciprocating parts of the internal combustion engine?

(a) Klien’s construction

(b) Ritterhaus’s construction

(c) Bennett’s construction

(d) D-Alembert’s constructions

I got this question by my school teacher while I was bunking the class.

This intriguing question originated from Ritterhaus Construction in chapter Inertia Forces in Reciprocating Parts of Machine Dynamics

Right answer is (d) D-Alembert’s constructions

For explanation: D-Alembert’s principle is used to convert a dynamic mechanic problem to a static problem with the help of inertia forces while the other three constructions are used to determine the velocity and acceleration of reciprocating parts of IC engines.
