To calculate the Glass Deflection (\(D\)):
\[ D = \frac{P \cdot L^3}{48 \cdot E \cdot I} \]
Where:
Glass deflection refers to the bending or warping of a glass surface under pressure or load. This can occur in windows, doors, or other structures made of glass when subjected to wind pressure, temperature changes, or physical force. The amount of deflection depends on factors such as the thickness of the glass, the size of the pane, and the type of load applied. Excessive deflection can lead to glass breakage or damage to the surrounding frame.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ D = \frac{500 \cdot 1000^3}{48 \cdot 70000000000 \cdot 2000} \approx 0.000744 \text{ mm} \]
The glass deflection is approximately 0.000744 mm.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ D = \frac{1000 \cdot 1500^3}{48 \cdot 70000000000 \cdot 3000} \approx 0.001339 \text{ mm} \]
The glass deflection is approximately 0.001339 mm.
