| In this paper we present a novel test methodology for the generation of varying degrees of pre-damage in small soda-lime glass cylinders by dynamic loading in combination with a subsequent contactless damage quantification.
| This paper focuses on the load-carrying behaviour of laminated glass panel supported merely along four edges subjected to compressive force.
| A study was made of the impact resistance of annealed, heat-strengthened, and fully tempered laminated glass using test panels.
| Explosion events represent an extraordinary action for buildings and especially for the building envelope.
| This paper examines various ways of combining paper and glass as a laminate and the effects on transparency.
| The present research study explores the seismic performance of single laminated glass panels with various point fixing solutions.
| ​This paper offers an in-depth exploration of EVA-based encapsulants, which are widely used in the photovoltaic industry but also have potential for specific architectural glass applications.
| In this study, double-laminated glass plates are impacted by 7.62 mm armour piercing (AP) bullets, and their ballistic limit velocity and curve are determined both through experimental tests and numerical simulations.
| In the paper, strategies for reduced order modeling of glass panels subjected to soft-body impact are developed by means of dynamic substructuring.
| In this study, we investigate double-laminated glass plates under ballistic impact through experimental tests and numerical simulations.
| The current study aims to determine the probabilistic fracture strength of glass plates exposed to arbitrary loading and loading rates by a proposed rate-dependent strength prediction model (SPM).
| This document provides an overview of the causes of sunburst delamination in laminated glass.
| The impact of building glass breakage on personnel injury was considered in this model.
| The study describes the results of the shear modulus of viscoelastic interlayers made of polyvinyl butyral and provides the basis to define and evaluate a model for the finite element analysis.
| This text looks at the two systems of vertical and horizontal hot boxes, as well as the laminating cycles for PVB and EVA. It also compares the process to an autoclave PVB laminating process.
