Abstract

A load-carrying ability is studied for flat-based organic glass-made illuminators with a glass unit formed as a disk or a truncated cone. The illuminators are loaded with a long-time ambient hydrostatic pressure. Structural alternatives are reviewed for this sort of illuminators. Experimental investigations are carried out for cases of short-time and long-time loading. It is demonstrated that the structural version offered provides improvement of the illuminator load-carrying ability for the case of long-term hydrostatic loading.
