... by the simplest model consisting of a shock pressure pulse averaged in two divisions and applied over the entire beam span. For this case, the simulation and experimental responses had reasonable correlation for fractured E-glass/vinyl-ester composite specimens with both nanoclay and graphite platelet...

...Hwun Park; Weinong W. Chen Dynamic crack propagation across a perpendicular interface in a glass specimen was investigated to understand the interaction between the crack and the interface under impact loading. The glass specimen was composed of two glass plates in an edge-to-edge configuration...

...Timothy J. Holmquist; Gordon R. Johnson This article presents a computational constitutive model for glass subjected to large strains, high strain rates and high pressures. The model has similarities to a previously developed model for brittle materials by Johnson, Holmquist and Beissel (JHB model...

..., e.g., modulus from experimental pressure/deflection data or interface toughness from debond size/injected volume data. This is illustrated using experiments to quantify the interfacial adhesion energy between an initially dry polydimethylsiloxane-glass interface via bulge testing under controlled...

...Viggo Tvergaard Numerical calculations are carried out for a test specimen geometry used by Ashby et al. to study effects of ductile reinforcements in brittle materials. A lead wire well bonded to an outer glass cylinder was used to investigate crack bridging by ductile particles. The main focus...
