In the field of cable modeling, many models have been proposed to describe the mechanical
behavior of simple straight strands under axial loading, and the predictions of these models …

In this paper the mathematical geometric models of the single-lay wire strands and double-
lay wire ropes with defined initial parameters are presented. The present geometric models …

A new model characterizing the response of a multi-strand wire rope subjected to axial
tension and axial torque is presented in this paper. Apart from most of previous approaches …

In this paper a new mathematical geometric model of spiral one or two-layered oval wire
strands are proposed and an accurate computational two-layered oval strand 3D solid …

A finite element approach to the mechanical behavior of braided ropes at the scale of their
internal components is proposed in this paper. The ropes considered are composed of a few …

A meso-scale numerical model is established to simulate concrete cracking induced by the
three-dimensional (3D) corrosion expansion of helical strands in the present study. A 3D …

This paper discusses a helical auxetic structure which has a diverse range of practical
applications. The mechanical properties of the system can be determined by particular …

Cable saddles are devices used to allow the cable to be continuous over a support. This
paper presents the results of experimental and theoretical analyses of the spiral four-layered …

Cable model has a strong influence on the complexity of the kinematic analysis of cable-
driven parallel robots (CDPR). The most complete elasto-static model relies on Irvine …

In this paper a new mathematical geometric model of spiral triangular wire strands with a
construction of (3+ 9) and (3+ 9+ 15) wires is proposed and an accurate computational two …
