Impact energy prediction in monolithic glass under impact loading

초록

The monolithic glass, without damage, under impact loading, is studied by the use of the codedfinite element program. To predict the impact energy of monolithic glass like annealed glass andtempered glass, a finite element approach based on Sun's higher-order beam finite element and impactenergy equation is proposed. For this purpose, the contact force-displacements, energy-displacementhistories and velocity-acceleration histories etc. are calculated during all impact processes. And, also, bythe calculations of the coded FEM program, the geometric parameter like thickness is investigated todetermine their impact energy prediction of monolithic glass.
