Abstract
The objective of the present study is to investigate and create a methodology to study the mechanical behavior of laminated glass in the case of a pedestrian’s head impact. Windshield models were set up using different combinations for the modeling of glass and PVB, with various connection types and mesh sizes. As the properties of glass are unknown during crash this test will help us understand the behavior of glass. Each glass model was impacted in different conditions of crash in an LS-DYNA simulation environment, and the results were compared with the experimental data performed in the test. The influence of glass fracture stress on the same model was investigated, and the cracked area and the peak value of the impacting layer’s linear acceleration is to be determined by the critical fracture stress.
Keywords- crash analysis of laminated glass, ls-dyna, automobile glass failures
