Comparative Study on Crack Initiation and Propagation of Glass under Thermal Loading

This paper explores the fracture process based on finite element simulation. Both probabilistic and deterministic methods are employed to model crack initiation, and several commonly used criteria are utilized to predict crack growth. It is concluded that the criteria of maximum tensile stress, maxi...
