Estimation of the Longitudinal Elasticity Modulus of Braided Synthetic Fiber Rope Utilizing Classical Laminate Theory with the Unit N/tex

This paper uses classical laminate theory (CLT) and experimental methods to predict the longitudinal specific modulus of braided high modulus polyethylene (HMPE) rope without a matrix. When applying conventional CLT, the modulus, braided angle of strand, and packing factor (PF), i.e., the cross-sect...
