Contact Forces and Stresses in Cables

  • Conference paper
Computational Mechanics ’86

Abstract

Theoretical expressions are presented for the resulting forces in wires and for the contact forces between wires of a complex cross-section cables. Numerical results are presented for a 6x19 IWRC Seale wire rope.
