Glass Fracture Upon Ballistic Impact: New Insights From Peridynamics Simulations [PDF]
Frontiers in Materials, 2019 Most glasses are often exposed to impact loading during their service life, which may lead to the failure of the structure. While in situ experimental studies on impact-induced damage are challenging due to the short timescales involved, continuum-based ...
