    Doing some calculations on Oceangate Titan sub

    @r6155 Pretty interesting, you do not even know me and you are trying to label me. I work with composites, and the general public have a lot of misconceptions on what composites can do and what they cannot do. I am trying to educate the general population away from misconceptions and what...

    Doing some calculations on Oceangate Titan sub

    No I do not have a solid background in pressure vessel design, manufacturing and inspection. I am a software engineer with a background in composites manufacturing. But I am try to learn some basic engineering formulas. Joe

    Doing some calculations on Oceangate Titan sub

    @Snickster, let me know if this ok, I am trying to get my head around some of the basic formulas. If it too involved I more than likely will not be able to reproduce it at this basic level of my understanding. Thanks

    Doing some calculations on Oceangate Titan sub

    Could someone work these formulas for me so I can verify my answers. I would like to calculate the pressure of the entire end cap I would then like to calculate the pressure on just the flange bond. I am using the following data: Pressure 5800 psi Length = 3 inches (end cap bond length that...

    Doing some calculations on Oceangate Titan sub

    Thanks everyone for the great posts, @Snickster you mention "The method of calculation are found in the literature." Can I assume that this literature is the Engineering Handbook? Thanks again Joe

    Doing some calculations on Oceangate Titan sub

    Since I want to calculate the joint bonding area, should use the surface area of just the end cap or the entire length of the pressure vessel? Thanks Joe

    Doing some calculations on Oceangate Titan sub

    Hello Everyone, I am trying to do some calculations on components on the Oceangate Titan sub. I am a software engineer with a Composites Manufacturing background. I am trying to calculate the amount of PSI that was on the bonding flange on the Titan sub. I have used the formula 2π(35 +...
