| Synthetic fiber ropes are characterized by a very complex architecture and a hierarchical structure. Considering the fiber rope architecture, to pass from fiber to rope structure behavior, two scale transition models are necessary, used in sequence: one is devoted to an assembly of a large number of twisted components (multilayered), whereas the second is suitable for a structure with a central straight core and six helical wires (1 + 6). The part I of this paper first describes the development of a model for the static behavior of a fibrous structure with a large number of twisted components. Tests were then performed on two different structures subjected to axial loads. Using the model presented here the axial stiffness of the structures has been... |

| Faced with the need to exploit off-shore oil fields at ever increasing depths, lighter replacements are being considered for the standard steel cable mooring systems used for platforms. This study considers the mechanical behaviour of synthetic ropes made of two different materials: PET and PEN. The first is already used in ropes to replace steel, and the second could be a potential competitor. A multi-scale study, involving mechanical tests (mainly tensile, creep and cyclic loading) has been carried out on assemblies of various sizes, from ropes of several hundreds kN breaking load to their smallest components: filaments. Strong correlations were found between the quasi-static behaviour of assemblies and the behaviour of filaments, which in itself is... |
