Validity and limitations of linear analytical models for steel wire strands under axial loading, using a 3D FE model (2007, methodology): “For lay angles beyond 151, the analytical models, which take into account the change of geometry due to the Poisson’s effect, Kumar and Cochran [18], Ramsey [44] and Costello [17], provide the results closest to those of 3D FE model.”
Load transfer mechanism in carbon nanotube ropes (2003, background): “It is well known from continuum mechanics analysis of other types of wire or fiber forms that twisting the wires or ‘‘weaving’’ the fibers can lead to a cable or rope that has much better load transfer mechanism in tension, than a straight bundle would have [17].”
Silk matrix for tissue engineered anterior cruciate ligaments. (2002, background): “Costello’s equation [14] for a 3-strand wire rope was derived to predict mechanical properties of a multi-level silk fibroin matrix that could mirror the ACLs stress–strain curve (Table 1).”
Nonlinear dynamics and loop formation in Kirchhoff rods with implications to the mechanics of DNA and cables (2005, methodology): “ð18Þ In the context of the wire rope considered in [37], e denotes the overall extensional strain of the rope (not the individual component wires) and the constants Ci are determined by the stiffness of the component wires and the helical construction.”
