Wire rope isolators are used in variety of applications to protect sensitive equipment from vibration. The nonlinear hysteretic behavior of steel wires provides advantages when compared to linear vibration isolators. This study proposes an amplitude dependent stiffness and damping model for low amplitude vibrations under axial loading, where the parameters can be determined with an experimental procedure. Comprehensive experimental results of forced vibration tests with varying loading, frequency and preload were considered in the model identification. Amplitude dependent stiffness and loss energy models were determined from the test data, and the effect of the preload and loading frequency on the model parameters were studied. It is shown, that the effect of preload and frequency is not evidently clear, while the effect of vibration amplitude is more significant. The mathematical model was further verified against measurements from base excitation loading. The proposed model can be used to study the effectiveness of the selected wire rope isolator configurations in chosen application, and to effectively perform dynamic design studies.
