Experimental Evaluation and Numerical Modelling Residual Stresses in Glass Panel

During last decade increased usage of laminated composite glass structures, also annealed and tempered glass can be observed in civil engineering, automobile and space structures, solar panels, etc. Latter trend is caused by high strength properties of laminated glass, also sound and vibration attenuation capabilities. However, heat treatment of glass causes residual stresses, which are not often covered in structural analysis. Current study is focused on experimental evaluation and numerical modelling of residual stresses in glass panels
