Abstract

A method includes coupling a damper to a cable and a load, and moving the damper, the cable, the load, or a combination thereof. In response to the movement, slack is introduced into the cable, and the slack is suddenly released, which exerts a tensile load on the damper and the cable. The damper is configured to dampen the tensile load exerted on the cable.
