Study on the State of Stress in the Wires of Steel Ropes under Tensile Load

Round Table On The Present Trends Of Wire Rope Endurance – Milano 1973

Forward

The behaviour of wires in steel ropes has quite often been the subject of research. However, as far as the authors know, a detailed analysis o"! the stress state in these wires has not yet been undertaken. The aim of this experimental study is to illustrate some aspects of the stresses in the above-mentioned wires.
