Abstract
Glass materials are extensively used in load-bearing structures and impact-resistant components because of their distinctive physical and chemical properties. Accurate predictions and assessment of the mechanical responses of glass structures are crucial for structural design and reliability analysis. In this study, quasi-static and dynamic ball-on-ring (BOR) biaxial flexural tests are conducted on aluminosilicate glass. The smeared fixed crack model is calibrated for deformation and failure analyses. First, the model parameters are calibrated carefully, particularly for different failure criteria. Both the deformation field and fracture modes agree well with the experimental observations during the quasi-static tests. For the low-velocity impact biaxial flexural loading condition, three different numerical techniques, namely the initial scaling tensile strength criterion, non-local approach with energy criterion, and rate-dependent failure stress criterion, are implemented in the numerical models for dynamic failure analysis. Finally, the proposed smeared fixed crack model is compared with the widely used Johnson Holmquist Ⅱ (JH-2) model and demonstrates advantages for low-velocity impact response analysis of glass structures.
期刊介绍:
Thin-walled structures comprises an important and growing proportion of engineering construction with areas of application becoming increasingly diverse, ranging from aircraft, bridges, ships and oil rigs to storage vessels, industrial buildings and warehouses.
Many factors, including cost and weight economy, new materials and processes and the growth of powerful methods of analysis have contributed to this growth, and led to the need for a journal which concentrates specifically on structures in which problems arise due to the thinness of the walls. This field includes cold– formed sections, plate and shell structures, reinforced plastics structures and aluminium structures, and is of importance in many branches of engineering.
The primary criterion for consideration of papers in Thin–Walled Structures is that they must be concerned with thin–walled structures or the basic problems inherent in thin–walled structures. Provided this criterion is satisfied no restriction is placed on the type of construction, material or field of application. Papers on theory, experiment, design, etc., are published and it is expected that many papers will contain aspects of all three.
