Transverse and rotational vibrations of steel rope are important issues in various technical installations. Dynamic properties of rope fragment are also useful as diagnostic parameters for broken wire detection within steel rope. This paper is intended to research the steel rope dynamic properties using lumped mass model. Theoretical detection of desired natural frequencies and corresponding forms of axially tensed rope fragment is useful for the proposed method implementation. The proposed theoretical model is verified with results of experimental research of steel rope. The proposed model is focused on transversal and rotational rope vibration analysis; there is an aim to obtain rotational vibration shape of rope from excitation in transversal direction to rope axis. Obtained theoretically calculated amplitude-frequency characteristics are compared with experimentally measured and good coincidence noticed. Finally, conclusions are drawn on the performed rope modelling results.
