Rope, английский
- In the first instance, an aerial genre where tricks are performed on rope fastened on the top of hanging down freely. in the second instance, a rope is stretched horizontally, parallel to the ring (it is sometimes inclined to it), running at the height of
- A strong thick line, comprised of a number of twisted or braided strands of fiber (such as hemp) or of wire (
- Узел рыбацкий штык
- Трос
- Is composed of hemp, hide, wire, or other stuff, spun into yarns and strands, which twisted together forms the desired cordage. the word is very old, being the actual representative of the anglo-saxon rap.—to rope a sail. to sew the bolt-rope round its edges, to strengthen it and prevent it from rending.
- [1] a number of fibers, twisted or braided together. in most nautical usage, rope is generally defined as cordage greater than one-inch (2.5 cm) in circumference, while smaller cordage is generally called line. however, the usn calls all cordage “rope” as long as it remains on the supplier’s spool; once unspooled the usn calls it “line,” irrespective of size (with the exception of cordage for specific purposes such as manropes, bell-ropes, wheelropes, footropes, etc.). natural rope fibers include hemp, manila, sisal, and coir, but wire may also be twisted to form rope. synthetic fibers, such as nylon, polyester, and polypropylene, are increasingly used for rope manufacture. they are stronger than plant fibers, but melt at lower temperatures. (see also rope history, rope characteristics and rope manufacture.) [2] to bind, fasten, or tie with line, rope, or cord (e.g., rope a bale of goods). rope & hawser lay: twisted rope, also called laid rope, is the most prevalent form of cordage. the general principle of rope-making is to gather groups of fibers into yarns, that are twisted together to form strands, several of which are then twisted together in the opposite direction to form a rope. when under tension, the tendency for individual strands to unravel is opposed by the tendency of the rope as a whole to untwist in the opposite direction. most twisted rope consists of three strands and is normally plain-laid (given a right-handed twist). large heavy-duty ropes, called hawsers or cables, are made of three or four primary ropes, laid in opposition to their own lay. the most common lay, with strands spiraling upward to the right, is known variously as right-laid, hawser-laid, z-twist, clockwise, or with-the-sun. the strands of a left-laid rope, also known as s-twist, lefthand, counter-clockwise, or water-laid, spiral upward to the left. when the yarns twist in the opposite way to the strands the lay is said to be regular, when they go the same way they are lang-laid. in reverse-lay the lay of individual yarns alternates between regular and lang. (see also cable-laid.)
- A basic item of climbing equipment that physically connects the climber to the belayer.

- Traditionally a line must be over 1 inch in size to be called a rope.

Rope characteristics, английский
Rope has tensile strength. this allows it to be used for pulling or connecting, but not for pushing, as is too flexible to provide compressive strength. rope will stretch under load, but normally regains its normal length when loosened. the older and more worn the rope, the less elasticity it will possess and the weaker it will become. rope under load will tend to twist in the opposite direction to that of its lay and thereby tend to unlay itself, but it should regain its normal form when slackened. however, the strands tend to unlay unless the end of the rope is whipped. when wet, rope will usually shrink in length in proportion to the amount by which it swells in diameter, but it will recover its original length when released from tension and allowed to dry.
