HI
I'd want to simulate steel wire ropes in elevator assembly and validate the vabration property. But I don't know how to model the steel wire ropes which have stiffness and damping coefficient and also are flexible to control the elevator up and down. I have read some papers and they simulate this situation with bushing in ADAMS. But in SW/M there is no direct way to do this, is anyone meeting this problem? The attached may help you to understand what I say.
Thanks.

I want to simulate the motion analysis like the attached motion.GIF . Not for the animator, I want to see the results such as reaction force ,acceleration and so on.
