"' Flexible cables "', or'continuous-flex'cables, are cables specially designed to cope with the tight bending radii and physical stress associated with moving applications, such as inside cable carriers.

"' Cable driven robots "'( called as cable-suspended robots and wire-driven robots as well ) are a type of parallel manipulators in which flexible cables are used as actuators.
23.
Fuller gave the idea its name, combining'tension'and'structural integrity .'The height and strength of Snelson's sculptures, which are often delicate in appearance, depend on the tension between rigid pipes and flexible cables.
24.
"' Electric drain cleaners "', also called plumber's snakes, use the mechanical force of an electric motor to twist a flexible cable or spring in a clockwise direction and drive it into a pipe.
25.
The 17th-century scientist Robert Hooke wrote, " " Ut pendet continuum flexile, sic stabit contiguum rigidum inversum " ", or, " As hangs a flexible cable so, inverted, stand the touching pieces of an arch ."
26.
Because they require removal of the bolt or barrel, they are slower to use than a rod squeegee; however, being composed mainly of a flexible cable, they can be easily coiled up into a very compact size.
27.
If it is necessary for the operator to stand a short distance from the camera, e . g ., if the camera is inconveniently high, a short flexible cable called a " focus whip " can be used.
28.
Though obsoleted for domestic use, it is used for flexible cables when greater mechanical toughness than PVC is required such as temporary electrical wiring at events where the cable is standardised as Cenelec code H07RN-F ( H07 for short)
29.
Other orders, each for around 1 million pounds ( dlrs 1.53 million ), have been awarded to the Aberdeen engineering firm Aker, to Duco of Newcastle for umbilicals, or flexible cables, and to Kvaerner FSSL of Aberdeen, for subsea controls.
30.
Aha ! it must be the tension in the cable, especially when you realize a flexible cable can't sustain a compressive force so if the body is hanging down on the cable the cable must be providing an upward force.
