<p>A bend limiting strain relief boot (1) is disclosed wherein an outer diameter of the boot (1) varies as a function of a desired minimum bend radius (ς), a side load applied (F), and the modulus of elasticity (E) of a material from which the boot (1) is made. An outer diameter (do(υ)) of the boot varies as a function of its distance from a distal end of the connector following the relationship (I), wherein di is the inner diameter of the boot, F is the maximum applied load, ς is the desired minimum radius of curvature, υ is the angle of the applied load relative to said neutral axis, and E is the modulus of elasticity of the selected material.</p> |
