This article describes two different techniques utilized to characterize intact and damaged borosilicate glass at pressures up to ∼2 GPa: triaxial compression and confined sleeve. The results of the characterization experiments—for intact and damaged glass as a function of confinement pressure—are described; the results are interpreted in terms of two pressure‐dependent constitutive models: Drucker–Prager and Mohr–Coulomb (MC). The MC model is successful at predicting the damage pattern. An observation is that the slopes of the two models appear to be independent of the degree of damage (intact, predamaged, and severely damaged specimens). Lastly, these data are compared with flyer‐plate impact data of intact and damaged glass.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
