Abstract:Abstract-Flexural behavior of laminated glass beams was numerically predicted through an open source finite element code; a cohesive-frictional behaviour of the adhesive and the brittle fracture of the glass were implemented though adequate constitutive laws. Both the processes of de-bonding of interlayer and the failure of glass panels can be captured by a refined finite element analysis. Based on the elastic theory, simple analytical expressions are utilized for the prediction of composite glass beams, inclu… Show more
