Master the dynamics of structural glass elements for innovative and safe architectural designs
Structural glass is a cutting-edge material widely used in modern architecture, but its dynamic behaviour under various restraints and vibrations requires meticulous analysis. This course provides an in-depth exploration of the vibration and damping properties of structural glass elements. It highlights the impact of boundary conditions, such as pinned and clamped configurations, on glass stability and performance. Participants will learn about advanced techniques, including Operational Modal Analysis (OMA) and Finite Element (FE) simulations, for assessing the resilience of glass in dynamic applications.
Through case studies and experimental data, this course equips professionals with strategies to improve the reliability and safety of glass structures in real-world conditions.
Key topics include:
