Abstract:
Although many aspects of helical strand have been carried out, there are still some situations which need more studies. Based on previous studies of wire rope the constitutive equations regarding the rope tension and torque to the rope deformations are carried out. In which constitutive constants depend on both the rope material and geometry of the rope. Equations of motion for straghit rope loaded simultaneously in tension and torque are derived, and with using extensional-torsional deformations in both side of the rope, dynamic stiffness matrix is derived. Some experimental results and currently models are compared with my research model numerically. Finally, mechanic response of helically wire rope which composed of viscoelastic material is investigated
