Dynamic Response Of Glass Under Low-Velocity Impact And High Strain-Rate Compression Loading, Seyed Soheil Daryadel Jan 2015

Dynamic Response Of Glass Under Low-Velocity Impact And High Strain-Rate Compression Loading, Seyed Soheil Daryadel

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

In this research, the dynamic response and energy absorption characteristics of four different types of commercially available glass have been investigated experimentally. Soda Lime, Starphire, Borosilicate, and Fused Silica were characterized using a Dynatup 8250 drop weight impact test system, and a modified Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB). In the low-velocity punch-shear experiment, similar trend has been observed for all glass types, and Starphire and Borosilicate demonstrated the highest total energy absorption. High strain-rate SHPB compression tests were carried out on cylindrical glass samples at two different strain-rates. Borosilicate shohigher compressive strength and energy absorption in comparison to the other …
