While I understand not wanting to divulge the sensor, I don't understand the delay in reporting. It's not like Titan was on a mission to blow up the Nordstream II pipeline. Between the navy and Cameron's revelation that Titan had dropped ballast and was returning to the surface, it's pretty clear on Sunday people knew this was a recovery operation, not a rescue operation. Yet we spun everything up as if it was a rescue. No one wanted to make that call.

There are plenty of adhesives which are used to bond domes into barrels for many, many cycles in order to meet qual, protoqual, and acceptance testing requirements for SMC-S-016

Quoted:


heater blankets are commonly used but at my work we have found that the hotspots they produce are not ideal. I know they are for sure used on rotor blade cures.

Other proprietary options for heating are what we are shifting too now for large parts at least, ours are mostly barrels (rockets) so there are nice ways to heat the inside of an enclosed space.

Rich people commonly sue to destroy people they dislike rather than for profit.  It's conceivable they will destroy the people who designed or produced the craft with no clear profit to themselves, other than personal satisfaction.  It wouldn't surprise me if some of those "diversity" hires find themselves in a black hole of legal problems.

I mean hell, even poor people do it.  Look how many people end up with egregiously large alimony or child support orders pursued by an angry ex, knowing the guy will never be able to pay it.  Some people just get a laugh out of seeing their enemies suffer.

Seriously man, that’s cool. Thanks for the details. Any idea what adhesive was used? I watched the video of the assembly, that seemed to be legit but I’m curious.

We also make and sell a lot of a steel with low  thermal expansion that is used for making molds for Cf or fiberglass.  Probably some for aerospace but I think boats is a big one

Quoted:



With those pressures over and over? Interesting. Next up would be the porthole or CF shell.

We use aluminum because we take advantage of the CTE for demolding

The coast guard guy who had no real dog in the fight of how long it stayed in the news (and probably much easier for him if it is not) played the same song and dance as the news people though, saying it was still a search and rescue right up to the moment the wreckage was found.  The coast guard also didn't give any real hints of what they made of the "noises" until finding the wreckage.

Quoted:
There was a valid explanation of not using a single source to definitively say it imploded and being the guy that falls on if they were wrong and sub washed up somewhere with bodies in it.

James Cameron says he was told on MONDAY that the sound of the Titan sub imploding had been detected, and claims the carbon fiber hull of the doomed ship was known to be unsuitable


James Cameron was told within 24 hours of the Titanic sub disappearing that it had been heard to implode, and 'watched over the ensuing days this whole sort of everybody-running-around-with-their-hair-on-fire search, knowing full well that it was futile.'

The film director and deep sea expert, who has made over 30 dives down to the Titanic wreckage, said he was told on Monday that the noise of a likely implosion had been registered by underwater acoustic devices.

'I tracked down some intel that was probably of a military origin, although it could have been research - because there are hydrophones all over the Atlantic - and got confirmation that there was loud noise consistent with an implosion,' he told CNN.

He said it did not surprise him, because he felt the carbon fiber hull of OceanGate Expedition's sub, named Titan, was fundamentally unsuitable.


Cameron told Anderson Cooper on Thursday night he was 'kind of heart sick from the outcome of this.'

But, he said, he had had more time than most to come to terms with it.

'I've been living with it for a few days now, as have some of my colleagues in the deep submergence community,' he said.

'I was out on a ship myself when this happened on Sunday.

'The first I heard of it was on Monday morning. I immediately got on my network - because it's a very small community in the deep submergence group - and found out some information with about a half hour that they had lost comms and they had lost tracking simultaneously.

'The only scenario that I could come up with in my mind that could account for that was an implosion. A shockwave event so powerful it actually took out a secondary system that has its own pressure vessel and its own battery power supply, which is the transponder that the ship uses to track where the sub is.'

Cameron, 68, said he began speaking to friends and colleagues in the deep sea industry, and swiftly learned that there was little doubt there had been a catastrophic implosion.

'I let all of my inner circle of people know that we had lost our comrades, and I encouraged everyone to raise a glass in their honor on Monday.

'Then I watched over the ensuing days this whole sort of everybody-running-around-with-their-hair-on-fire search, knowing full well that it was futile, hoping against hope that I was wrong but knowing in my bones that I wasn't.'

Cameron said it 'certainly wasn't a surprise' when the U.S. Coast Guard and OceanGate confirmed on Thursday that all five onboard were dead, and debris from the imploded sub had been found on the sea bed.

He said he felt terrible for the families, saying they had to 'go through these false hopes that kept getting dangled as it played out.'

James cameron sure does push the fact over and over that he knew before everyone else that it imploded, why is that of any concern other than for hsi own EGO, "im smarter than everyone else and I knew before you did!!" type attitude is cringe.

I would have faith in the titanium domes but they are also being pushed against a CF tube

In the vid a CF tube failed at 29000kg Titanium failed at about 90000kg. 3x the resistance to pressue.

There is little doubt in my mind they knew day 1 it imploded and there was never going to be a rescue.

He is not the only person that does this stuff that has said that in regards to this.  Considering there are only ten vessels capable of doing this type of stuff all these folks know each other and stay in touch.  He also knew that the design of Titan was dangerous like the rest of those folks as well.

Paul-Henri Nargeolet, 77 - known universally as PH - was part of the first human expedition to visit the Titanic's wreck in 1987, and had visited the site at least 35 times. His family said their hearts were broken over his death.

'He is a man who will be remembered as one of the greatest deep-sea explorers in modern history. When you think of the Titanic and all we know about the ship today, you will think of Paul-Henri Nargeolet and his legendary work.

'But what we will remember him most for is his big heart, his incredible sense of humor and how much he loved his family. We will miss him today and every day for the rest of our lives.'
