Abstract:
The purpose of the work in this report was to develop spherical-shell sector windows of acrylic plastic for the deep-diving submersible ALVIN, which has a 12,000-foot depth capability. Results show that the spherical windows can be used in ALVIN without modification of the window seat flanges.
