A pressure vessel comprises a matrix structure extending in three dimensions . The matrix is in generally hydrostatic (triaxial, or three-dimensional) tension when carrying loading induced by pressure of the compressed fluid stored within a series of voids interlinked at their point of contact in the matrix. A fluid impermeable outer covering surrounds, and is contiguously supported by, the matrix. The pressure vessel can assume an irregular shape. Transfer means, including an artery system, is provided for admitting and discharging the fluid. A solid surface component, while in a liquid phase, c an be mounted on the matrix and changed to a solid phase, anchoring the compone nt to the matrix with an integral bond.
