Initial Tension Loss in Cerclage Cables

The Journal of Arthroplasty, 2013
Cerclage cables, frequently used in the management of fractures and osteotomies, are associated with a high failure rate and significant loosening during surgery. This study compared the capacity to maintain tension of different types of orthopaedic cable systems. Multifilament Cobalt-Chrome (CoCr) cables with four different crimp/clamp devices (DePuy,

Deep Reinforcement Learning Based Cable Tension Distribution Optimization for Cable-driven Rehabilitation Robot

International Conference on Advanced Robotics and Mechatronics, 2021
Cable-driven parallel robots (CDPRs) have become increasingly widely used in rehabilitation training, while the control of cable tension remains a major problem.

Comparison of double-strand braided polyester sutures tension band (Nice knot) with cable tension band in transverse patellar fractures.

Injury, 2021
BACKGROUND The tension band technique is the most common method for internal fixation of transverse patellar fractures. Titanium cable and high-strength sutures have been successfully applied in this treatment; however, few studies have compared the Nice

Cable Kink Analysis: Cable Loop Stability Under Tension

Journal of Applied Mechanics, 1982
Submarine cable kinking is a continuing design problem. Cable kink occurs when a cable loop forms due to torsion and tension action, and then tightens under subsequent tension increase. This paper describes cable loop stability under the subsequent tension and clarifies the kinking mechanism.

An experimental study of cable tension identification based on measurements of mode shapes

IABSE Congress, Ghent 2021: Structural Engineering for Future Societal Needs, 2021
Cable tension identification based on mode shapes extracted from vibration measurements is a relatively new method. In this method, the cable is equivalent to a beam model hinged at its ends and under axial tension with an unknown length to eliminate the

The effect of cable tensions on the stiffness of cable-driven parallel manipulators

2017 IEEE International Conference on Advanced Intelligent Mechatronics (AIM), 2017
A cable-driven parallel manipulator (CDPM) is driven by a set of cables instead of rigid links. Since cables have more flexibility than rigid links, stiffness of a CDPM has been a concern for applications requiring controllable system stiffness. This paper studies the effect of cable tensions on the stiffness of a CDPM that has six degrees of freedom ...

Investigation of high-tension cable joints

Journal of the A.I.E.E., 1925
With suitable cable, the successful operation of a high-tension cable system depends on the joints between consecutive lengths and this phase of high-voltage cable installation must receive considerable attention in the near future. The essential properties of a good cable joint are: 1. Simplicity of design 2. High dielectric strength 3. Low dielectric

Analysis of Bounded Cable Tensions in Cable-Actuated Parallel Manipulators

IEEE Transactions on Robotics, 2011
Cable-actuated parallel manipulators (CPMs) rely on cables instead of rigid links to manipulate the moving platform in the taskspace. Upper and lower bounds imposed on the cable tensions limit the force capability in CPMs and render certain forces infeasible at the end effector. This paper presents a geometrical analysis of the problems to 1) determine

A Variable-Stiffness Planning Method Considering Both the Overall Configuration and Cable Tension for Hyper-Redundant Manipulators

IEEE/ASME transactions on mechatronics
In order to realize the flexible capture of noncooperative targets, a variable-stiffness planning method considering both the overall configuration and cable tension for a hyper-redundant manipulator is proposed in this article.

Shape accuracy optimization for cable-rib tension deployable antenna structure with tensioned cables

Acta Astronautica, 2017
Abstract Shape accuracy is of substantial importance in deployable structures as the demand for large-scale deployable structures in various fields, especially in aerospace engineering, increases. The main purpose of this paper is to present a shape accuracy optimization method to find the optimal pretensions for the desired shape of cable-rib ...
