when are we going to have the technology to make carbonfiber submarines?

It's all up to the spicelords who dictate the seasoning

Carbonfiber works if there's no DEI hires to botch it.

What /tv/ - Television or Film is this image from?

In the future lol

was titanium really that much more expensive? i'm gonna laugh if it was like 30% more

>>212733670
Is also very difficult to shape and machine. You can make a half a sphere out of titanium relatively easy, but a cylinder is a different story because it needs to have a seam.

>>212733584
Titan, nick.

Dunno, (((they))) took out the one guy who could do it

One man brought the whole world together to call him a retard.

Been wondering: are there even ANY applications where carbon fibre is used for structural integrity of essential parts? I know they use composites in airplane wings these days but I'm sure those are still built with aluminum frames and got flex points made from different material.

The fact that carbon fibre is held together by rather brittle glue seems to make it extremely vulnerable to eventual material fatigue .

You can, just need a garage and a lineup of suckers.

Why didn't they builded the submarine gooder?

Those are generally not put under any relevant stress at all. You are also supposed to stop using them when they got dropped.

when we can print all 10 inches that boeing recommented in one layer

>>212734438
Don't embarrass me in front of my friends.

>>212733670
not about the cost, its the weight.

Titanium subs needs a much bigger, stronger vessel to carry. therefore you need a bigger crew and a more expensive vessel to launch it. more fuel, more crew, more cost.

stockton wanted an inexpensive sub you could launch from cheap vessels, and then to expand that as his operation around the world. starting with the titantic as a premier destination.

I love that loser kid who wanted to do Rubik's cubing at the bottom of the sea, his stupid blog is priceless.

>>212734534
I doubt titanium would have been much heavier, it's just expensive af.

>>212734642
the nautile, a french submarine that also went down to the titanic weighed 19 tons, the ocean gate weighed 9.

>>212734777
the alvin weighed 20. your basically more than halfing the weight.

the cheap low-tier finnicky Bluetooth controller still gets me, like Stockton had no second backup control system once that suddenly broke.

>>212732798 (OP)
The tech exists. It just relies on someone who isn't a retarded megalomaniac to fund its implementation and tests.

>Stockton,
>Your voyage to the Titanic became its own kind of sequel: another preventable tragedy at the bottom of the Atlantic. But unlike my classic film, no one gets to yell "Cut!" and try again.
>You said, “At some point, safety is just pure waste.” That line alone could’ve been written for the villain of my movie. But you weren’t in a movie. You were in a tomb of your own devising.
>What you called “engineering breakthroughs” were really just shortcuts. And just like in Titanic (1997), arrogance was the iceberg.
>You wanted to go down in history. Congratulations: you did. As a cautionary tale. A modern Icarus in a sub made of cutting corners.
>You didn’t just go too deep. You were in way over your head from the start.
>Respectfully yours,
>Jimmy C.

>>212734907
its not like they ignored safety entirely. Voyages regularly be cancelled amid safety concerns.

>>212734860
it would be an amazing material for the unpressurized auxillary stuff, leave the pressurized chamber to materials that can handle bearing the depth pressure for long periods, since that's carbon fiber's biggest drawback (just ask bikefags)

>>212734818
>>212734777
Both of those dive way deeper than the titan ever did though.

>>212734973
>acoustic sensors register 100x more snapping carbon fibres than normal
>ignore it
>die
oops!

>>212735283
I guess Logitech Gamer Rush thought Carbon fibers were the sub's regenerating health and it would heal itself over time.

>Piranha Part Two: The Spawning
>This movie is certainly in the top 10 worst I have ever seen. It was so bad that I had pretty much forgotten about it until I saw it listed on the "Worst Ever" list on here. An utter and complete waste of film. The only worse movies I have ever had the misfortune of viewing had to be the asinine "Lost Highway" and the ridiculous "Pearl Harbour". At least Pearl Harbour starred Kate Beckinsale. Pirahna II: The Spawning has no redeeming qualities whatsoever.The plot is ridiculous, the acting is worse and even as a child I remember telling everyone I knew what tripe this movie was. As A child, I laughed about it for weeks. As an adult I just wince at the memories.However, you may enjoy it if you like really bad movies. Unfortunately, it isn't so bad it's funny... It's so bad you want to kick your TV in after wasting your time watching it. Stay away. FAR away.

We can make carbonfiber spaceships but lost the technology to make carbonfiber submarines. This proves the West has fallen.

>>212734310
Sail boats, race cars, bike frames, and the use in aircraft is primarily for wings and control surfaces.
It's great for applications where tensile strength is needed.
>>212732798 (OP)
>when
Never. It's the wrong material for compressive loads and repeated stress.
>>212736177
>We can make carbonfiber spaceships
Because those pressure vessels are fighting decompression. Not compression. The structure is being stressed from a positive internal pressure to an unpressurized exterior environment. In the same way that an aircraft fuselage is filled to a pressure that's higher than the exterior pressure due to increased altitude. It's entirely the wrong material to make a submarine out of.

>>212736313
>How many atmospheres can the ship take?
>Well it's a space ship, so anywhere between one and zero.

TONY STARK
BUILT THIS WITH CARBON FIBER
AND A BOX OF *bang*

>>212732798 (OP)
i'm confused, havent we had multiple submarines make it to the Titanic just fine? and its only now in 2025-1 that submarines cant make it to the Titanic anymore? Its the moon landings all over again

>>212736313
so just turn the carbon fiber inside out

>>212736955
It's just that they don't want to ask James Cameron. His personal submarine made it down to the very deepest part of the ocean floor

>>212736955
This "pioneer"'s goal was to make cheap crap suba that any retard/woman could steer and give commercial deep sea tours to the upper middle class.

American economics 101.

>>212734597
Can you share the link pls?

The engineer Stockton fired defended the design, said that if done right the fiberglass hull can hold. He also said that carbon fiber does "season". Some strands break but after that all the ones that will have broken would have. He said the cause of the implosion was most likely water seeping into the interface between the carbon fiber and titanium dome. Due to the sub being left in sub-zero temperatures in the off-season. He posits the glue cracked and lost its water-tightness.

>>212736955
The difference:
>multi-year projects constructed by trained engineers and physicists building works of art using cutting-edge technology backed up by billions if not trillions of dollars of private funding and sponsorship
>Year long DIY project

>>212738553
you sound boring and uninspired
NEXT

>>212738062
It made the trip down several times. No one ever doubted that it can do it. The problem was always that it will eventually fail and when it does it's not gonna be in a safe, pull over and call a tow truck way. It's catastrophic. It would need regular extensive testing, inspections, and even replacements, which Stockton wouldn't want.

>>212733599
But this is the future.
