Abstract
The force-displacement data during loading and unloading process is obtained by wire rope stretch experiment, which includes 7 different diameters ropes. Based on the data, deformation curves of elastic extension are established. It is shown that the loading and unloading curves compose of the elastic hysteresis loop because the wire rope during unloading shows obvious anelasticity. Analysing the elastic deformation curve characteristics, the values of loading and unloading curve parameters are provided by fitting the experimental data. The loading elastic modulus is constant independent of initial load, and the unloading elastic modulus is non-linear which is related with the maximum load. The elastic modulus is applied to the calculation of freight ropeway bearing cable. Compared the result with the actual project data, it shows that the method considering the wire rope anelasticity can improve the precision of bearing cable calculation.
