Abstract
A method for producing at least one fiber-reinforced polymer liner having a portion that lies on a sphere or on a cylinder includes winding at least one fiber around a mandrel to form a lay-up on the mandrel, the lay-up comprising a layer of wound fibers or a plurality of layers of wound and superimposed fibers, removing the lay-up formed from the mandrel, and cutting the lay-up before or after removal from the mandrel. Also, optionally, installing the liner in an opening in a housing, the opening having a spherical surface portion.
