HYDRAULIC PRESS VS CARBON FIBER

This video has aged well...

If you put graphene as a "lubrican"in a piece of graphene carbon fiber or steel, and press/heat it over a long period of time, like over 100 tons, it eventually will fill any cracks and harden the area it's in.

In an O Neil Cylinder, it should not Only Fill In Any Cracks that form, but Over Time, it should fill in any cracks and self heal, While Becoming Stronger.

Ability to withstand over 100-120 Tons Per Square Inch.

Think About That. And Half That in the Other Direction, Something Concrete Can't Do (Being Compressed And Sheared)

Did the buffalo horn smell like freshly-cut fingernails afterwards?

As a QA, I’m going to have to reject your first article of carbon fiber due to delamination sir.

Can you do a human head?

Every Metal turns into paste, wtf. Imagine if you could use Iron as plasteline 😂

Elephant and rhino poaching solved. Replace their tusks / horns with CF

That music at the end blew me eardrums.

What was the cross section of the carbon blocks?

Even if you had five foot diameter industrial cables sandwiched in a matrix like that, it should be able to bear similar amount of weight.
Especially if you use graphene carbon fiber in everything.

Imagine you had 5 foot diameter cables acting as the threads in that carbon fiber block.
If you made an O’Neill cylinder out of cables like that and made a basket, and then just sandwiched everything like scaled up version of that block, it would be incredibly strong!

Look at the threads in that block. And then just scale it up. Just think of 5 foot diameter cables acting as thread in that block.

Scale.

60 to 100 tons per square inch. Think about that.

Not enough for a sub tho

Wow. I did know that Carbon Fiber is extremely durable, but that it gets up to 90 Tons (!!!!!!!!) is absolutely ridiculous. I need a controller out of Carbon Fiber lol.

Now imagine a block of carbon nano tubes

“Do not repeat what you saw in this video”

OceanGate: Nah, Ima do my own thing

This makes the deep sea even more terrifying, the titan sub was made of this stuff, for it exert more force than 60 tons is just horrifying

We should build a submarine out of that carbon fiber asap

20 cm carbon fiber car, imagine

Wow. This didn’t age very well.

i would've applied 5 tons of pressure to carbon fiber if this video didn't had a warning, thanks

Wasn't strong enough for the ocean though...

"warning do not try this at home"
Oceangate : of course not, I will try this at the bottom of the sea instead.

Ok to the engineers out there, why do objects fail in shear? Like in simple terms.

The very first clip of the wooden block shows a perfectly flat block but it doesnt compress like a spring but instead it shears. Why?

I suggest you redo the last part but with a titanium cube underneath the carbon cube (one on top of the other ).

Please test carbon fiber cylinder!

The Algorithm has a sick sense of humor sometimes

people who think netherite can't be real well there ya have it

Ahh, so it’s not just something nice to bling your side mirrors? lol

They should make a deep sea submersible out of this stuff 🙃

They should make a submersible out of this.

carbon fibers are so durable, someone should try making a submarine witj them, bet you can even reach the titanics with em

The titan submersible could have really used this video

The solid carbon fiber block held out well under the hydraulic press, but let’s see how well it does if there’s a 1/2” horizontal hollow in the carbon fiber block to simulate the Titanic sub’s hull.

Wow, watching that hydraulic press delaminate carbon fiber is almost as intense as the recent Oceangate incident! I guess both situations show that even the strongest materials can’t withstand extreme pressure. But on the bright side, at least the hydraulic press didn’t cause an international incident.

After the first exposure to extreme stress, carbon fiber parts should be replaced. It's already compromised.

What about water pressure

Carbon fiber sometimes breaks unexpectedly. Some people learned it the hard way recently...

Carbon fiber good for one time damage such as driving crashes and such but constant pressure it will crumble.

I can’t believe it….. we have a winner 😮

The hull goes skibbadee da de dat pop.

This video has been imploding in the algorithm again recently. I wonder why...

Woke titanic sub ceo saw this video with the carbon fiber and was like "good enough for deep sea exploration!"

I mean, diamond is carbon... Carbon fiber isn't diamond but you know what makes diamonds? Pressure.

Was this the sound you heard while on the submersible?

should've made the sub with buffalo horns

👌

Why aren’t planes made out of this?

Shoulda made that sub out of buffalo horn instead....
