BASIC Desk-Top Computer Program for the Three-Dimensional Static Configuration of an Extensible Flexible Cable in a Uniform Stream

Abstract

A generalized computer program for predicting the three-dimensional, static configurations and tensions of extensible, flexible cable systems is described. The program is written in BASIC language for use on desktop computers. The report includes development of the equations, descriptions of the program, instruction for program usage, sample programs, and a program listing for a Hewlett-Packard 9836 desktop computer.
