Hydrogen is currently stored in gaseous form under high pressure of up to 700 bar in tanks made of fiber-reinforced composites (FRC). If a single carbon fiber tears in the pressure tank, a sound wave is generated that travels through the fibers. Acoustic emission and strain sensors detect damage in the tank.
