Laminated glass is a simple sandwiched composite structure, while being widely used in the
automotive industry as windshield glazings. It is considered to be safety glass due to its …

The annual worldwide production rate of waste glass is a million tons; the waste glass is non-
biodegradable, resulting in environmental pollution. However, the chemical composition of …

Laminated glass (LG) is created by bonding multiple glass layers using a polymeric
interlayer, which reduces the risk of glass shards by kee** the pieces connected. The …

Several new laminated glass (LG) polymer interlayer materials are now available in the
market such as Ethylene-Vinyl Acetate (EVA), and SentryGlas (SG). In this paper, quasi …

Automotive laminated glass is normally comprised of two soda-lime glass sheets bonded
with one plastic interlayer, polyvinyl butyral (PVB). Glass-ply cracking is the principal …

The designed fracture of laminated glass (LG) makes it useful for architectural, glazing,
automotive safety, photovoltaic, ultraviolet ray protection, and decorative applications. The …

The research presented herein aimed to simulate the structural behavior of laminated glass
with all the glass layers broken, by means of the discrete element modeling. This paper …

Laminated glass (LG) windows significantly enhance building safety due to their ability to
retain shattered glass within the interlayer, but their susceptibility to failure under blast …

PVB-laminated glass has been widely adopted for building windows as safety glass due to
its significant post-crack load bearing capacity. To achieve a better understanding of the …

This paper presents an approach for modelling the impact breakage of the laminated glass
(LG) using the combined finite-discrete element method (FEM/DEM). It encompasses the …
