    Abstract: For improving storage of hydrogen in a vehicle, a hydrogen tank assembly is provided for a vehicle. The hydrogen tank assembly includes an inner tank wall defining a hydrogen tank volume configured for storing liquid hydrogen; and an outer hydrogen collector defining, together with the inner tank wall, at least one cavity outside of the hydrogen tank volume and including at least one hydrogen outlet for leading gaseous hydrogen which leaks from the hydrogen tank through the inner tank wall into the at least one cavity to a hydrogen storage or a hydrogen consumer.

    Abstract: A system and device for laser shock peening device and components thereof. The system includes umbilical cords with flexible outer sheaths surrounding the fiber optic cable within the umbilical. The umbilical may include two different sections with different outer sheathes. The applicator device may have a laser peeing pen that has a longitudinal axis that is spaced from the longitudinal axis of the applicator device. In a method of operating the device, a first step includes a vertical movement, followed by a second step of rotation movement, and then another step of vertical movement opposite the first step.
