| This study employs a transient, heat transfer finite element analysis to shed light on the thermal response of laser—glass powder bed interaction and the impact of processing parameters.
| Visual defects, in particular haze, in glass and façade technologies can significantly impact the aesthetic quality and human experience of daylight and views in buildings.
| What glass processes gain the most from automation? In this blog, we’ll focus on some of the particularly promising application areas.
| This paper introduces the concept of a numerical sensor as a key element for creating a hybrid digital twin focused on the monitoring of load-bearing glass façades.
| This paper investigates the challenges and potentials of phase-field modelling in simulating glass fracture.
| When finding, training and retaining personnel for routine jobs is a challenge, processing automation offers a game-changing solution.
| This paper presents investigations on a novel approach for post-tensioning laminated glass beams with adhesively bonded iron-based shape memory alloy tendons along both longitudinal glass beam edges.
| Sustainable Configurations for Double Curved and Spherical Glass
| In this paper, the anticlastic cold bending test was conducted to explore the influence of various factors, including aspect ratio, scale and composition of the plates.
| The two common defects—White Haze and Anisotropy—are often misunderstood but are not the same.
| A recent study by BV Glas and Stuttgart University outlines three pathways to achieve climate neutrality in the glass industry by 2045.
| This paper investigates the post-fracture spring-back effect and the post fracture behaviour in warm bent glass, aiming to assess its safe use in structural glass applications.
| This paper aims to quantify the savings achieved through the ERM of secondary layer addition to existing glazed facades, for a high WWR office building in cooling and heating dominated climate locations.
| This paper deals with the question of how old insulating glass units can be re manufactured to match the state of the art in terms of the energy efficiency.
| The thesis examined the barriers to recovering end of life glass from commercial projects in London, and identified the drivers that will open pathways for glass to be recycled.
| This paper introduces a novel method for measuring user satisfaction with glass deformations, aiming to establish acceptance thresholds comparable to objective criteria.
| Increasing the circularity of flat glass does not only mean to collect glass cullet from internal and pre- consumer processes. It also means to use glass cullet from the post- consumer applications, such as residential or commercial buildings.
| This research examines the viability of recycling soda lime glass from post-consumer Insulated Glass Units (IGU), mixing various types of architectural glass cullet and fusing them into flat plates by using electric kilns.
| In this latest Glastory blog, Uwe Risle explains why thin triple IG units are gaining popularity and what the key differences are between thin triple IGUs and other insulating glass types.
