| Summary: | a prescribed blast loading. This response includes the an equivalent triangular loading. IG units designed by analysis of sealed insulating glass (IG) units subject to approximate the positive pressure phase of a blast load with blast loadings, but will lend insight into the acceptability displacements, velocities, and accelerations of the glass existing methods will be analyzed using the program, and freedom systems consisting of equivalent masses, equivalent in order to simplify the analysis. The program will incorporated into a computer program that will be used as a incorporating air space compatibility relationships into this indicate the acceptability of the technique developed in this model. The equations of motion which define the behavior of modeling the unit with two equivalent single degree of of the existing design approach. The results will also plates of the IG unit. The blast loading will be idealized provide valuable data on the behavior of the IG units to structural stiffnesses, equivalent forces, and by subject to blast loads. that computes the dynamic response of an IG unit subjected to The goal of this thesis is to develop an approximate dynamic their performance evaluated. This analysis will not only thesis as a tool in the design and analysis of IG units this approximate dynamic analysis of IG units is achieved by this dynamic model are incorporated into a computer program tool to estimate their dynamic response. The formulation of uniform blast loads, the formulation of which will be |
