The analytical model developed enables quick and reliable assessment during the preliminary safety glass design where full-scale FE analysis is often too time-consuming.
Based on preliminary trials, glass, PEG 400 and sucralose were selected as casting surface, water-miscible plasticizer and sweetener for OTF, respectively.
AgNWs deposited on a preliminary substrate (glass) were plasmonically sintered to significantly enhance their conductivity, and then transferred to the surface of the cured PVB film by the ILP.
Finally, the proposed model appears an useful tool for preliminary design of glass panels for practicing engineers.
In the paper an analytical model is also presented for a preliminary design of composite glass beams able to predict the ultimate load including limit states due to glass cracking, flexural failure with glass crushing or plates yielding, shear compression and diagonal tension failure.
A simple model is also presented for a preliminary design of composite glass beams able to predict the ultimate load including limit states due to glass cracking, flexural failure with glass crushing or plates yielding, shear compression and diagonal tension failure.
The preliminary model for the glass beads made very reasonable predictions, but that for the maize grains required calibration.
Preliminary results on hour-glass shaped joined specimens have been obtained by this method.
Sintering is also used in the preliminary molding of ceramic or glass powders into forms that can then be permanently fixed by firing.
