Failure Analysis of a Wire Rope
Practical Failure Analysis, 2002Abstract Wire ropes, pulleys, counterweights, and connecting systems are used for auto tensioning of contact wires of electric railways. A wire rope in one such auto tensioning system suffered premature failure. Failure investigation revealed fatigue cracks initiating at nonmetallic inclusions near the surface of individual wire strands ...

Making Wire Rope and the Wire Rope Industry (1840–48)
2020Abstract After missing out on the Schuylkill Bridge contract, John turned his attention to manufacturing wire rope, an entirely new idea in the United States. John undertook an extensive campaign to have his ropes adopted on the Allegheny Portage Railroad.

Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, 1963
Transmission losses are determined for 20 wire ropes commonly used in crane and hoist practice. The apparatus and procedure used in determining the losses are described and the results are presented in the form of graphs. From these graphs the law governing the losses is established.

Chapter 3 considered the static response of a simple straight strand with the cross section shown in Figure 3.1. It was assumed in that chapter that the wires were frictionless. It will now be shown that friction plays a very small role in the axial loading of a simple strand.

Offshore Technology Conference, 1977
ABSTRACT The magnitude of structures being lifted offshore with wire rope slings is rapidly becoming heavier and heavier. Lifts of 75 to 250 tons are not uncommon. Faced with such load magnitudes, the rigger is many times faced with a delicate problem. He has a multiple choice.
