For the people saying that carbon fiber underperfomed: Remember that the advantage of carbon fiber is not its raw strength, but its strength to weight ratio. Titanium took 3x the force of carbon before it broke, but it also weighed 3x as much. Also keep in mind that these tests were strictly in compression, while carbon unquestionably performs its best in tension.

[@pcmasterracetechgod5660]

"Titanium took 3x the force of carbon before it broke, but it also weighed 3x as much" This is true, but also the driving reason for asking why people hype it up so much if it's about the same as titanium in terms of strength to weight. Especially when you take cost into consideration.

According to some studies, Carbon Fiber can withstand depths of over 7,000 meters. And it certainly survived several trips to the Titanic so it does work. The problem is that nothing can stand repeated dives, and as yet we haven't developed a good way to non-destructively test when Carbon Fiber has reached its limit. I should also point out that the experts don't seem certain yet the carbon fiber caused the failure. Several people have pointed to the very dodgy porthole, and some say it was the combination of the titanium end caps and the carbon fiber that was the real problem. Maybe it was even something else entirely, since it seems like safety wasn't exactly priority number 1 with Ocean Gate.

@@rodh1404 carbon fiber has ALWAYS been developed and used as a tensile reinforcement. It is common knowledge in composites that fiberglass performs similarly if not better than carbon in compression applications. Once you start pulling on the laminate in tension, carbon out performs justbout everything. I think this hull design just used so much of it (4" thick?) as to just brute force the calculations. But as many others have pointed out, typical composite laminations fail over time due to micro crack in the epoxy marix. tiny cracks occur and grow as the structure is loaded. Add extreme thermal cycling and the dimensional changes from the pressure and its gonna break down. Ive built a bunch of skis and skateboards and random parts from CF and glass, nothing too crazy but even with my basic experiences, i would NEVER pursue a CF sub for deep water. The only reason to do it this way is 1. probably cheaper than the extreme grades of metals required 2 much lighter weight, which means support systems for docking the sub needed to be much smaller and cheaper. also carbon fiber has proved time and time again that it is great at seperating rich people from their money. its a good buzzword.

Note: that carbon fiber tube was likely _stronger_ than Titan's CF because it was woven in multiple directions (though, obviously, much thinner overall than Titan). But what people keep forgetting to mention about Carbon Fiber is the danger of *repeated stress*. It might handle a given level of stress once, twice, etc. but each time adds tiny fractures and eventually it fails *without notice*. That's why carbon fiber bikes need to be X-rayed for microfractures after any significant accident. _none_ of that was done for Titan after each dive.

[@TEMUCHINYONGA]

[@sciteceng2hedz358]

For those wondering about the *lack of shattering* of carbon fiber, there are 2 possibilities. 1. The height to thickness ratio of the sample was such that buckling (catastrophic failure) would not occur. Criteria based on geometry and material properties will determine if buckling or crushing.will occur. With a longer tube you will see buckling. Thanks to @josephgarrett for pointing this out. 2. Regardless of 1. the nature of a simple hydraulic press will ensure a constant velocity of the head. Otherwise known as constant displacement rate. The hydraulic fluid is pumped into the cylinder at a constant rate meaning constant downward motion after yeilding (failure point). After yeild you can see in the video that the force begins to drop, yet the downward speed is constant. So you can compress the sample by the same amount, but with less and less force. More advanced machines can control displacement and force with software but this test is incapable of applying a constant force to the tube. If there is anything I missed please let me know!

[@josephgarrett3075]

I don't believe this is correct....... the reason there is not catastrophic failure (with any of the specimens) is because someone did their homework and solved for the necessary geometry/stiffness to induce crushing under compression rather than buckling (for example the J.B Johnson/Euler interaction curve).

[@raboldrt]

Pressure made it heat up and delaminate? Basically melt? *the glue

Wrote too much for a simple concept: all kinds of fibers resist traction, not compression. Simple this way!

Well, this isnt really indicative of much. They crush carbon fiber in the direction of the filaments, which is much, much worse than how Titan experienced pressure. However, that doesnt take away from the fact that a carbon fiber based pressure hull is bad for external pressure but superior to any metal for internal pressure. So, if you wanted to build a tank to contain internal pressure, carbon fiber will give you the best result in terms of weight and maximum sustainable pressure. But dont make a sub from it...

From the safety point of view, my main concern about carbon fiber is how minimum deformation it shows before coming undone. For a vehicle like a submergible, the deformation from the titanium could mean when it starts showing material fatigue after multiple trips, there is a big chance it will be deformed and survive, allowing a post-submerging inspection to identify it's reaching its limits and decommissioning it before a fatal incident, while the carbon fiber looks for a submergible, it won't show any previous deformation until the trip when it suffers catastrophic failure..

[@madabbafan]

If you look at the pipe here the weave of the fibre shows it going in two directions increacing the strength. The sub only had the fibre strands running in one direction so not as strong as it should have been.

[@MrLuffy9131]

I just feel like metal is somewhat one piece so it won't really make a hole unless something punctures but carbon fiber has so many weaves that there's so many possible places for holes. It probably good for something on land like body armor where you don't have water seeping in and it's tough and lighter than steel but I wouldn't trust it going to a really deep depth where everything fails all at once and you don't know what hits you

@@MrLuffy9131 it didnt leak water... it delaminated lost its strength and failed. if it were to have "leaked" it wouldn't have been imploded. the cabin is pressurized with oxygen right so if it were to leak it would be constantly fighting the pressure of the fluids around it. they would notice the pressure instability and surface but it failed almost instantly with no possibility of taking on water.

[@pablogriswold421]

The titanium (and steel, PVC, aluminum, etc) in this video failed by yield, which is gradual and detectable. Cyclic stress and fatigue causes failure by crack propagation, which can be much more sudden. Titanium is susceptible to fatigue cracking no matter how high the yield strength, so it must be designed with a maximum number of cycles in mind (just as the carbon fiber in the titan should have been). There's no good reason to make a sub out of carbon fiber, but with properly calculated fatigue life, it could have been safe just like titanium. Really though steel would be the better option because it has a fatigue limit, where if each cycle doesn't exceed the limit, the vessel will always be safe. In some cases it may be cheaper to simply say that the vessel should only complete x number of dives, which is acceptable in most materials, but at the end of the day steel is the only material with a real advantage there.

@commendatore2516 beause people dont understand how cf works. In this case where hes basically pressing the fibers downwards the main force taker is the resin. However the resin only is an addition to fixate the fibers in position. The fibers should take the load, which they do best in tension directed to the fibers. Pointless comparison like this. And as you said, aluminium is not stronger than cf. It just so happens that aluminium is isotropic (takes forces the same no matter which direction) and cf is anisotropic (force taken depends on direction).

Seeing what happened to the carbon fiber under pressure gives insight to the failure method caused by cyclic stress on the hull of the research sub made of the same stuff. As well the response of the steel and titanium which are strong and highly ductile, thus resisting cyclic stress induced faults and brittle fracture. This is exactly why these materials are used by the US Navy in the hulls of our submarines. This video is an excellent education in materials properties. The pvc pipe and metals are an excellent example of whats referred in Materials Science as "plastic deformation", same pretty much goes for the carbon fiber. I expected to see the PVC fail via brittle fracture, did the slow pressure build up induce heat and thus make it more ductile? There are four bonding methods of molecules, ionic, covalent, metallic, and van der Waals. It's all about your bond type and the materials either element or compound, molecular alignment be it natural or induced. Theses are all a very well understood and documented failures of the materials, you should read up on why they fail in these manners.

The port window was only rated for 1300m and they used at least 4 incompatible materials to build the sub. You can’t attach plastics, metals, rubber, and carbon fiber together and not expect the materials to weaken at contact points over time. Commercial flat roofs are notorious for leaks because of degradation along the contact points between metal flashing, plastic vent caps, and various types of roofing materials. Changes in temperature expand and contract those respective molecules at different rates. Add atmospheric pressure and other unknown factors beyond my knowledge and you definitely have cause for concern.

[@ColdWarVet607]

@@kingwillie206 Agreed. Dissimilar materials have faults induced at the boundary. Carbon Fiber is basically fiber and glue. As both are subject to stress, the "brittle" glue is torn from the fiber. This continues on each dive and now there is a large fault area, which can not support what it did when it was new. Carbon fiber is know to only have a few cycles to it before failure. The steel used when I was in service for our class sub was HY80, good for hundreds of hundreds of compression's and its X-ray'd in port to determine hull integrity with a nuclear source on one side of the hull and film on the other.

If that experiment is ever replicated I'd suggest to include video taken with a thermal camera so that we get an idea of the temperature profile along the length of the test tubes.

The reason the Stainless performed the best is it’s weight, if it was the same weight as the Titanium it would perform worse than it, this is because it has a lower strength to weight ratio than Titanium, but it’s high density means it’s heavier than the Titanium pipe of the same size, it may have a slightly lower strength to weight ratio but it doesn’t matter if it weighs that much more The reason it outperformed the Low Grade Steel is because of the difference in how the steel was made, the low grade steel wasn’t made to the same specifications as the Stainless, as such it has different properties, in this case a significantly lower strength to weight ratio, the pipes may have been almost the same weight but because the low grade steel has such a low strength to weight ratio it took much less for it to start bending

OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush also used expired carbon fiber from Boeing to build his Titan pressure vessel. That's even worse. The FAA does not allow airlines to build or repair aircraft using expired CF because it's weaker. The resin used to hold the carbon fibers together is susceptible to degradation over time, which will alter the frame’s properties. Delamination is when layers of carbon fiber begin to unbond due to stress. Steel returns back to its original shape. Damage to carbon fiber remains and accumulates. The material is horrible for a sub. And even stainless steel is subject to corrosion and rusting in saltwater. Non-destructive testing and replacing parts are crucial after every trip. Additionally, the viewport of the Titan submersible was only built to a certifiable pressure of 1,300 meters (4,265 feet). The CEO refused to upgrade it.

With the load being applied uniformly I wouldn’t think it would be all that interesting.

Wow quite a difference between those materials and I was always under the impression that carbon fibre is stronger than steel. This test shows that the submersible lost recently diving to the Titanic being covered in carbon fibre was indeed an accident waiting to happen.

It is stronger than steel, but not for compression.

[@serdaravsar5181]

it is stronger per mass than steel in tension. That's why it is used in aircraft and race cars where weight matters

[@serdaravsar5181]

For this application weight does not matter so much. Steel and titanium can be used
