Abstract

An expandable metal membrane of the type used to contain cryogenic liquids is disclosed. The membrane utilizes two sets of triangular shaped corrugations at right angles to each other. The corrugations are arranged so that the membrane expands only along one axis at each intersection of the corrugations and the expansion of the membrane along two axes simultaneously is assisted by the rotation of the panel enclosed by each two sets of corrugations.
