Abstract

The use of KEVLAR 29 as the strength member in electro-mechanical marine cables is being investigated by the Naval Air Development Center. Cables with diameters between 0.034 inch (0.086 cm) and 0.061 inch (0.155 cm) are addressed. The tensile characteristics of braided KEVLAR 29 cables are shown to require overdesign of cable strength to compensate for variations in tensile properties. Seawater return cables are modelled to predict the transmission line characteristics of KEVLAR and steel cables.
