ABSTRACT = {Wire ropes have complicated structures. Its core is assembled using
six wire strands around a simple straight wire strand and called as Independent
Wire Rope Core (IWRC). IWRCs are used as the core for most complex structured wire ropes as Seale IWRC. In this paper as a complex wire rope structure the
construction of Seale IWRC is described and its finite element analysis (FEA) is
mentioned. The proposed methodology gives wire by wire results and as a result
gives necessary information about the wire behavior within a wire rope.},
