Abstract
In this study, a comparison between theoretical solutions and experime ntal results are examined for fracture conditions in the case of float glass plates subject to static loadings. The ranges from fracture-gen erated initiations to critical penetration energies are confirmed acco rding to the impactor mass under high velocity, and an analytical meth od is presented to determine the fracture strength and penetration str ength. Also, fracture patterns are investigated according to impact ve locities.
