Abstract
Based on the direct approach of Green and Laws [A general theory of rods. Proc. R. Soc. A283, 145–155 (1966)], a theory of thin rods is derived and applied to the analysis of helical constituent wires in cables. Uniform extension, twisting and bending of cables are considered. The present theory predicts a new effect in the bending of cables when friction restrains relative movement of the constituent wires.
