Abstract
The designed fracture of laminated glass (LG) makes it useful for architectural, glazing, automotive safety, photovoltaic, ultraviolet ray protection, and decorative applications. The present review is divided into three sections: the first section includes a description and classification of the laminated plate (LP) theories that are used to explain fracture of LG plate, second section comprises explanation of fracture of LG samples during three-point bending, ring on ring and ball drop impact testing using linear elastic finite element (FE) model and the last section includes numerical simulations techniques used for explaining the impact fracture of LG. The outcome of the review highlights the requirement of quantitative work on crack propagation prediction during LG fracture and critical evaluation of the numerical algorithms available for modeling the glass-ply cracking and principal damage pattern in LG. This review paper is meant for the faster comprehensive understanding of this research area.
