From TNT equivalent to P-I criteria: A paradigm for assessing blast-induced critical damage in tempered insulating glass

Puntos clave

• Critical damage assessment involves comparing blast effects to TNT equivalent measurements, indicating potential weaknesses.
• The study establishes a link between P-I criteria and observed blast impacts on insulated glass, aiding future evaluations.
• Analysis focuses on blast-induced damage mechanisms, providing insights for improving building materials against explosions.
• This approach may enable more effective design strategies; further validation under varied conditions is needed.
