Corrosion fatigue continued mechanism

A major use of ropes is in lifts (elevators) and cranes, where heavy weights have to be raised and lowered. The requirement is for high strength and low extensibility plus resistance to flex fatigue in motion over pulleys and to corrosion. Heat can be a problem in deep mines or in braking an elevator in free fall. As skyscrapers and deep mines came into use in the 19th century, steel wire ropes were the natural choice. Industrial conservatism means that they continue to dominate the market. The mechanics are stress-driven and extension is a nuisance so that the high-performance fibres, such as aramid and HMPE, should be contenders. [Pg.416]
