Green glass bonding?

[murdoc]

Hello, everyone! for work I must verify what kind of tensions and deformations occur during the bonding of a laminated glass. I'll explain better. the laminated glass in examination and composed of two identical plates (curve) glued together with a thin film (film). when I go to paste the two plates the lower side of the upper plate will have to "combat" with the upper side of the lower plate; As the two plates identical the two sides in contact can never match perfectly as slightly different. there will therefore be small deformations in the two plates. to analyze these deformations and tensions I thought to create a set composed of low glass, with already glued the film (shaped correctly on the inner face) and place the glass above the contact with the lower glass. at this point binds the lower glass and I impose that the upper glass "comes" until touching the film; during the downhill phase the two glasses deform up to match.

I would therefore like to know which module is best to use to do this simulation.

Thank you.

I attach an image that I hope will clarify better than written.

the pvb film interposed between the two plates is brought to melting temperature, therefore, in a certain way the thickness of the film itself will adapt to the available spaces. On the other hand, as a rule, along the perimeter edge of the glass to be laminated, clamping clamps are applied or, even, vacuum bags, to increase the force of union. at this point to say who and how to deform becomes very difficult. I would simply simulate the two plates theoretically coupled with interposed a plastic film (pvb or eva) of adequate thickness (for normal glasses 0.38mm but for shaped and/or tempered glass it rises to compensate for the defects of flatness/sharing). the adhesion capacity of such films depends on several factors, for more information visit the kuraray site that produces this type of materials.


hoping you didn't get confused

Can you tell me to spend the cost of ansys for linear static? I use solidworks simulation but it's really coming out of.....

Thank you for the answer! Let us say that I would like to have an idea of the maximum tension points more than the real deformation; are partially aware of the procedure (fear.. :smile: ) and therefore of how the model I would like to analyze is "sufficiently" away from reality. . I would also like to realize this simulation for educational purposes, to learn how to use dynamics and then switch to dynamic simulations on structures etc.

Unfortunately, however, I cannot complete the simulation (set as mentioned above); start calculation but the progress bar locks when setting the resolver. The processor works at 90% so two possibilities: for a data error you create a loop or it takes a lot of time or a lot of power.... so I just have to wait. . .

Does anyone have experience with dynamic simulation? ? ?

Thank you!

ps: As for the cost I am not aware of it, I use a "student" license
