The determination of the fatigue resistance of steel ropes on the basis of the analyse of stresses in wires

RoundTable – ENDURANCE RESEARCH OF WIRE ROPE AND ITS PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS – Glasgow 1985

The varying loads of the rope and the position of wires in the rope make that the individual wires work in the condition of the triaxial state of alternating stresses. In the rope wires exist the following kinds of stresses:
