In recent years, considerable progress has been made in the development of models used to predict the response of ropes. Since there are so many parameters that can vary in the construction of a rope, such models can be used to determine the effects of possible variations of these parameter on the performance of a rope....The approach used in this book is to start out with the equations of equilibrium for a thin curved wire in space. A solution of these equations is found, and the results are applied to determine the stresses in a simple strand. These results are then extended to ropes with more complex cross sections. Numerous examples are worked out to illustrate the theory. Test… Leer más
