Whatever happened to academic questions?
Yes, computers can answer all your questions and I appreciate the fact that so many people create this need for skilled programmers.
I use to work with an engineer who would use his Cad program to draft out lines so as to do his trigonometry for him. Kinda made me chuckle, as he had a $100+ TI calculator right there next to him at all times.

Re: How do I calculate g-forces on a piston?
If the stroke were halved, resulting in half the travel and half the piston speed, (I'm thinking of an opposed piston opposed cylinder engine, where the total stroke is divided between the two pistons) would each piston/rod assembly experience half the G forces of one original stroke piston/rod assembly?
