The purpose is to model the forces exerted by a steel cable on its attachment points when external forces are applied to the cable. I have obtained a 2 m cable that is 5 mm thick and plan to initially model its behavior under the influence of gravity. I intend to compare the simulation results with practical experiments using the steel cable I have acquired.<\/p>\n

How can the attached model be configured to bend in the same way a 5 mm steel cable bends under the influence of gravity when attached horizontally at one end? The cable should bend almost straight down from the attachment point. It is likely necessary to initially define the element type to be similar to Cable280, but I’m not exactly sure how to do it, and I haven’t found an example. Could someone provide guidance or add an example to the attached model on how to achieve this? I’m using Ansys 2022 R2.<\/p>\n

Here is link to my model attachment, it’s available for 7 days.<\/p>\n

Now my model is acting like a steel bar.<\/p>\n
