Study on the stress and failure strength around the hole in point supported glass panels

Impact behavior of model porous concretes

“…Several researchers have investigated the stress concentrations around a hole in brittle porous solids and have been able to quantify the high stress concentrations at the vicinity of the pores both analytically and numerically [9][10][11][12][13]. Stress concentrations and their locations are very important because these amplified stresses are usually the causes of cracks emanating from those locations.…”
