Abstract

A system (100) for processing a workpiece (200) includes a constraining container(110), a pressure-triggered coupling (122), and an expandable medium (130). The constraining container includes an interior volume (112) and is configured to enclose at least a portion of the workpiece to be processed. The pressure-triggered coupling is configured to secure the constraining container in a closed configuration and is configured to release the constraining container upon an interior pressure (250) of the interior volume of the constraining container reaching a trigger pressure (252). The expandable medium is configured to be disposed within the interior volume between at least a portion of the constraining container and at least a portion of the workpiece and is configured to expand such that the expandable medium applies a positive pressure (254) to the constraining container and the workpiece.
