Seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) desalination depends on membrane systems that serially cleanse water piped onshore from the ocean (see “Composites slake the world's thirst” and “Designing pressure ...

All over the world, pressure vessels are being pressed into service beyond their design lifetimes. Advances in machine learning can lead to the deployment of increasingly reliable non-destructive ...

Composite pressure vessels have emerged as a pivotal technology in the efficient and safe storage of hydrogen, a key enabler for the transition toward sustainable energy systems. These vessels, ...

The material is a normalized steel which is heat treated and as a consequence exhibits greater yield and tensile strength than the more standard ASTM A516 grades. The steel is suitable for use in ...

High-pressure gas storage vessels represent one of the biggest and fastest-growing markets for advanced composites. In 2013, construction of pressure vessels of all types — metal, composite and ...

Pressurized systems at Michigan Technological University include everything from small, unheated, low-pressure laboratory setups to large, extremely high-pressure heated metal vessels weighing several ...
