| Abstract | Synthetic fiber ropes are characterized by a very complex architecture and a hierarchical structure. Considering the fiber rope architecture, to pass from fiber to rope structure behavior, two scale transition models are necessary, used in sequence: one is devoted to an assembly of a large number of twisted components (multilayered), whereas the second is suitable for a structure with a central straight core and six helical wires (1 + 6). The part I of this paper first describes the development of a model for the static behavior of a fibrous structure with a large number of twisted components. Tests were then performed on two different structures subjected to axial loads. Using the model presented here the axial stiffness of the structures has been predicted and good agreement with measured values is obtained. A companion paper (Ghoreishi, S.R. et al., in press. Analytical modeling of synthetic fiber ropes, part 11: A linear elastic model for I + 6 fibrous structures, International Journal of Solids and Structures, doi:10.1016/j.ijsolstr.2006.08.032) presents the second model to predict the mechanical behavior of a I + 6 fibrous structure.
