A method for producing a simulated animal organ includes: a shaping step of mixing a raw material containing mannan as a main component and water for gelatinization and shaping a gelatinized substance into a shape of an animal organ to obtain a shaped body; and a low temperature step of keeping the shaped body in a low temperature environment lower than a normal temperature. As a result, a simulated animal organ in a state extremely close to an actual animal organ is provided.

A continuous reinforced cold water pipe (CWP) for an Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) system is formed from a sequential series of molded pipe sections, which are formed from a series of rigid frame sections and a curable material to form the continuous reinforced CWP. Each molded pipe section is formed by moving a rigid frame section into a mold, enclosing at least a portion of the rigid frame section in the curable material, and curing the curable material. As each molded pipe section is moved out of the mold, the next sequential rigid frame section, which is connected to the previous rigid frame section, is moved into the mold. The cycle is repeated as many times as required to form the continuous reinforced CWP having a desired length.
