Abstract
In this paper, an attempt is made to analyze the impulsive stresses in a glass plate subjected to the transverse impact of steel balls. For the case of a mass striking an infinite glass plate, the contact force variation is obtained by solving a nonlinear integral equation given by the use of Lagrange's classical plate theory and Hertz's law of contact. By regarding this force as an impact load for the case of the central impact of a steel ball on a supported circular glass plate, the impulsive stresses in a glass plate are analyzed using the three-dimensional dynamic theory of elasticity. Finally, it is shown that these analytical results are in good agreement with the experimental results.
