Where Ad,L is the cross-sectional sectional area, yd,L y is the cross-sectional ordinate and hd,L is the distance <strong>of</strong> the<br />
considered wire in layer L from the cable axis (see also Fig. 2.12).<br />
Equation Equation 2.27 2.27 may may also be be written in the following manner manner for for an an individual wire in the the layer:<br />
layer:<br />
By comparing (2.28) and (2.29) and by solving the first integral <strong>of</strong> (2.28) for the cross-section cross section <strong>of</strong> the wire<br />
with σb,L as in (2.20), we obtain (EJ) (EJ)min,d,L, , the wire stiffness affecting how an individual wire bends<br />
around its own transverse axis:<br />
The corresponding cable stiffness, denoted (EJ) (EJ)min, , is obtained by summing the individual wire<br />
stiffnesses acc. to (2.30):<br />
where EK is Young's modulus and δδK<br />
is the diameter <strong>of</strong> the core wire.<br />
This This would would be be the the only only stiffness stiffness <strong>of</strong> <strong>of</strong> the the cable cable if the individual wires wires were lying lying on top <strong>of</strong> each other without<br />
friction.<br />
The friction forces between the individual wires however, analogous to elongation and stress, Section<br />
2.3, give rise to secondary stiffness (EJ) (EJ)zus,d,L as in (2.32).<br />
Since Since the the secondary stiffness stiffness arises from the secondary stress, which which is constant over the<br />
cross-section section <strong>of</strong> the wire, it is not actually nnecessary<br />
ecessary to integrate in order to determine the second part in<br />
(2.28). The secondary stiffness <strong>of</strong> an individual wire in layer L is therefore:<br />
