Balloon Stress-Band Analysis

Listed in National Center for Atmospheric Research

A test program to photograph tropopause-level balloon ascent failures unexpectedly revealed the presence of a circumferential stress band in certain balloons which failed catastrophically in flight.

Description

This document concludes that modification or elimination of the stress band in balloon designs could prevent failure.
