Help on Torsional stiffness of a non-rotational wire rope
(OP)
I am trying to find out how to calculate the torsional stiffness of a wire rope. Ultimately I am wanting to determine the torque required to rotate the wire rope.

From first principles it is a rather tricky problem.
So, are you trying to analyse it or just get an answer?
