Window glass breakage in a building fire could change the oxygen supply because of the entrance of fresh air. To investigate the break behavior of window glass under various rates of temperature rise, a finite element method was employed to solve the linear dynamic response equilibrium of the system. The Coulomb-Mohr criterion and SIFs based mixed-mode criterion were employed to predict the crack...
In a fire, the thermal stress upon window glass caused by a temperature difference between exposed and shaded areas is the key factor contributing to glass fracture. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of different shaded conditions on the glass when it is exposed to fire. Eleven different shading cases were simulated using finite element method (FEM) software, called EASY, which...
