Spall strength of shock-loaded glass

Abstract: The spall strength of soda lime glass was measured with Manganin stress gauges, in planar impact experiments, below and above the Hugoniot elastic limit of the glass. It was found that while in its elastic range the glass can withstand very large tensions (over 30 kbars), its spall strength reduced to zero when shocked just above the HEL. This confirms the assumption that the elastic limit marks the onset of fracture in glass upon shock loading.

“…12 and 13͒ and spall strengths ͑over 4 GPa͒ resulting from their amorphous silicate network structure. 14 This structure also gives rise to the possibility of densification during compression and this manifests itself in leading ramps on the rising edge of the wave. 15 The highly filled glasses, on the other hand, exhibit fast rising elastic waves and have similar wave profiles to those of polycrystalline ceramics.…”

“…14 The distinguishing feature of such a wave is the loss of tensile strength across the front and the reduction of shear strength that is also observed. [15][16][17] Since the initial observation of these waves, high-speed photography has revealed their form as a front resembling propagating fracture following some distance behind the shock. 18,19 Some authors have claimed that the wave travels at constant speed while others have contended that it slows as it moves in from the impact surface.…”

“…The values of the HEL for soda lime glass obtained from various sources ͑Table I͒ range from 3-6.4 GPa. [7][8][9]11 Of these studies, only Resseguier, Cottet, and Migault 7 determine value of the HEL based on reversible compression of soda lime glass. They report the value of the HEL as 3 GPa.…”
