← HistoryWhile raising a sunken 17th-century galleon, which risk increases due to increasing pressure?
A)Hull delamination fracture✓
B)Plank torsion shifting
C)Mast rigging detachment
D)Caulking hydrostatic intrusion
💡 Explanation
Hull delamination fracture risk increases because hydrostatic compressive pressure increases stresses which then exceeds adhesion strength. This leads to fracture mechanics overcoming material integrity, therefore delamination occurs rather than simple compression or other load distributions.
