STEADY-STATE MOTION OF CABLES FLUIDS Part2.TABLES OF CABLE FUNCTIONS FOR VERTICAL PLANE MOTION

摘要

The tables in this report make possible simple slide-rule or desk calculator calculations of position, stress, length, physical parameters;etc., in certain steady-state problems of the plane motion of cables. Part 1 of this study, NAVWEPS Report 7015 (Naval Ordnance Test Station (NOTS) Technical Publication 2378), discussed the problem for neutrally buoyant cables. The present report is for cables in a vertical plane and includes the effects due to weight of the cable.
