It was not a matter of if it would implode, it was only a question of when.

Even if it hadn't imploded, there's no amount of money you could have paid me to get inside it

This but the same can be said about sound submarines. No way I'm going down in one. Literally more hostile than space.

Had it never happened I would have gone on. I don't know shit about submarines and would also assume that the designers and builders are competent. Same as when you get on an airplane, although now with the Boeing thing etc I would think twice about it.

I was laughing about it the first time I read about it several years ago. Mixing completely different types of material in a pressure hull like that is a big no-no, never mind using CF in a pressure hull.

>"This operation will be conducted inside an experimental submersible vessel that has not been approved or certified by any regulatory body, and may be constructed of materials that have not been widely used in human-occupied submersibles," the waiver stated.
Yeah, no.

I didn't know it existed before the implosion but if you told me the window was rated for 1,300m and diving to 3,800m I would have serious concerns without knowing anything about CF materials science.

Yes.

Not at all.
I'm just a fag for small subs like this, and all the ones I've looked at are built in very similar ways. This is nothing like any of them, and being an arrogant prick I definitely would have proclaimed this an unsafe and poorly designed shitpipe, despite having no fucking clue what I'm talking about.

The problem with using any kind of fibre is that while the yield strength is high, the total strain it can take is shit and therefore there isn't a lot of tolerance for absorbing energy before it fractures.

You can mitigate this by, for example, building a composite material by embedding fibres in a polymer matrix. This is common engineering practice which is well understood.

What they did with this sub is not a "composite" like they called it, it was two different layers of metal of metal and fibre, both of which will fail separately. It would've been far better to simply use a bigger wall thickness design for the metal. The shape is also needlessly strange and I don'y think they did a proper stress analysis.

so far the investigation has shown that it was built very poorly and would've imploded if you kept using it regardless

Lets say you have a sub within a sub. In this case ocean gate on this inside and outside. The outside ocean gate fails because of build up of pressure, but when the water hits the internal sub, is that pressure going to be more strenuous because of the rapid change?

Maybe. Plus the particles of submarine ramming at high speed. Probably no good outcomes.

>If the oceangate sub had not imploded would you still have a bad opinion on its design?
Absolutely. Carbon fiber requires a brittle binder resin that will form microfractures as it is repeatedly stressed. Its failure is inevitable.
Such a design could only be single use.

The Titan was being designed and boasted about in 2020. We had plenty of time to know what they plan was and how stupid it was.

I never had an opinion on any submarine. When James Cameron went to the Titanic i just thought the submarine was a vehicle, didnt think anything special about it. Submarines dont seem to be great feats of engineering worthy of awe.
Jacques Costeau or one of his friends went much deeper in a Bathiscape, a huge steel sphere. You can just do the calculations, 1000 bar of pressure, how thick the steel has to be, etc.
