Stress calculations

Stress calculations done by my friend Hans Huijbers

To see if the hull is strong enough to withstand a 18 bar (180 meter)  test pressure, my friend Hans made a FE analyze. The hole for the hatch is a weak point. If we want to test it further than the current test depth, we need to make reinforcements in that area. At 180 meters you have no friends ;-0  

Red is a high stress or deformation area.   ( Stress Gallery !!! )
