u Dynamic displacement of an element of the cable due to dynamic 

 (time varying) inputs . 



u D3niamic displacement of the top of the cable . 



u Dynamic displacement of the array. 



u Static elongation of the cable due to its own weight and the weight 

 of the array . 



U Complex amplitude of u for sinusoidal variation with time . 



U' Normalized U (= U/| U | ) . 



U Value of U at the top of the cable . 







|U I Magnitude of U .
