| Minor fluctuations in the tempering process of architectural glass lead to residual stress differences resulting in birefringence and undesired optical iridescence, also known as anisotropy effects.
| The organic design and seamlessly reflective surface of “The Henderson” establish it as a landmark in Hong Kong. With its all-glass façade and a height of 210 m, the skyscraper designed by Zaha Hadid Architects offers spectacular panoramic views.
| This paper encompasses design, manufacturing, and experimental testing to assess the feasibility of using glass AM to produce interlocking masonry units for the construction industry.
| We discuss a novel approach, based on fractional calculus with a non-uniform time discretization, to numerically simulate interlayer viscoelastic behaviour and associated time-dependent deformation of laminated glass.
| C-010106 by Sarah Oppenheimer features two structural glass periscopes that offer unique views above and below the footbridge where it is installed.
| Adhesion tests conducted on laminated glass include pure shear and tensile loading tests.
| The purpose of this work is to implement an algorithm to perform topology optimization for glass structures fabricated by the AWJ cutting method.
| This paper focuses on the structural behaviour of walls composed of aerogel-filled glass bricks.
| The objective of the present work is the development and testing of a robust numerical model that can naturally introduce the generated crack pattern into virtual specimens and manage the interaction among many fragments.
| The latest Glastory blog explores the evolving role of automation in glass processing, highlighting examples of how it is transforming efficiency in the industry.
| Optical stress measurement in tempered glass has its challenges. Stresses can be measured optically based on the optical anisotropy behavior of the glass.
| The main objective of this paper is to explore the effects of ageing and exposure to indoor and outdoor environment on the strength of glass.
| This paper focuses on a numerical investigation of the in-plane behavior of an innovative steel-reinforced glass frame prototype, designed to incorporate (partially) UV-curable beam-column connections.
| This study employs a transient, heat transfer finite element analysis to shed light on the thermal response of laser—glass powder bed interaction and the impact of processing parameters.
| Visual defects, in particular haze, in glass and façade technologies can significantly impact the aesthetic quality and human experience of daylight and views in buildings.
| What glass processes gain the most from automation? In this blog, we’ll focus on some of the particularly promising application areas.
| This paper introduces the concept of a numerical sensor as a key element for creating a hybrid digital twin focused on the monitoring of load-bearing glass façades.
| This paper investigates the challenges and potentials of phase-field modelling in simulating glass fracture.
