Glass has been overwhelmingly used for windows and facades in modern constructions, for
many practical reasons, including thermal, energy, light and aesthetics. Nevertheless, due to …

Laminated glass is obtained by bonding two or more glass layers using a polymeric
interlayer. Compared to monolithic glass, laminated glass is beneficial in terms of post …

Carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) has been extensively used to strengthen structures
owing to its outstanding mechanical properties. With an increasing threat from terrorist …

In times of climate change and increasing resource scarcity, the importance of sustainable
renewable energy technologies is increasing. However, the photovoltaic (PV) industry is …

This study investigates the influence of the interlayer materials on the low velocity impact
performance of laminated glass. By varying the impact velocity, with a drop-weight, the effect …

Delamination processes absorb significant amounts of energy in laminated glass windows
when they are subjected to blast loads. Blast tests were performed previously and their …

Polyurea is widely used as a protective coating material for structures subjected to impulsive
loads. In this study, the mechanical properties of polyurea were investigated experimentally …

Laminated and hybrid glass systems are typically realized by bonding or joining together
several structural components and materials. Their structural performance and safe design …

Prefabricated segmental concrete column has seen an increased rate of adoption in the
construction industry. Much effort has been paid to investigate the performance of segmental …

This study presents a combined experimental and analytical study on the impact response of
multi-layered laminated glass (MLG) under low-velocity hard body impact before glass …
