STUDY OF THE EFFECTS OF THICKNESS ON THE PROPERTIES OF LAMINATES FOR UNDERWATER PRESSURE VESSELS

Abstract

The effects of thickness on the mechanical and physical properties of fiber-reinforced plastic laminates for deep submersible external pressure vessels are studied. An analysis of fabrication methods and problems related to thick-walled cylinders is given. Methods of testing and test results of cylinders and rings are presented. (Author)
