Thanks man, but you're no help. HAHA
The alloy is not a variable here. Putting a factor of safety onto the SAAMI Max Pressure should take care of that. Calculate the hoop stress according to that Pressure x your FoS and it should fall below the Alloy's Yield Strength in a safe design.
I've talked with Dan and I have the information I need for my calculations. (I don't know if it's proprietary for Lilja or not, but I won't share it. If Adam wants to that's fine.)
Right now I'm running my calculations with an FoS of 2. I feel like that's a little high, but 1.5 would be to low.
