Blast Analysis of Laminated Glass Curtain Walls Equipped by Viscoelastic Dissipative Devices

Nonlinear numerical simulations are reported for a conventional unitized laminated glass curtain wall subjected to high- and low-level air blast loading. The studied curtain wall, spanning floor to floor, consisted of a laminated glass panel, a continuous bead of structural silicone sealant, a split...
