Steady-State Motion of Cables in Fluids. Part 1. Tables of Neutrally Buoyant Cable Functions

Abstract

The tables in this report make possible simple slide-rule calculations of position, stress, length, physical parameters, etc., in certain steady-state problems of the plane motion of neutrally buoyant cables. The theory behind the cable functions is essentially that of Landweber and Protter. Examples are included to aid engineers in using the tables.
