MATHEMATICAL MODELING OF THE STRESS-STRAIN STATE IN STEEL ROPES
We propose a method of mathematical modeling of the stress-strain state in the steel wire ropes. A mathematical model implemented in the form of a listing of the mathematical package MathCAD. The characteristics of the model include the ability to take into account the large sag of initial outlines of steel ropes. A case study was made, and the comparative analysis of the stress-strain state was obtained using different methods of calculation.
