Ullmer, Patrick (author)Building energy regulations worldwide are increasingly advocating for better-insulated facades since improved insulation in facades can significantly reduce a building’s heating energy demand. However, research indicates that super-insulated buildings are already at risk of overheating due to high internal heat storage and low heat loss. In...master thesis 2023

Pfarr, Daniel (author), Louter, P.C. (author)The use of thin glass promises to enable a variety of construction industry pursuits. In addition to the ecological benefits of more efficient use of resources, architects can anticipate new design freedoms with thin glass. Based on the sandwich theory, the flexible thin glass can be combined with a 3D-printed open-cell polymer core to form a...journal article 2023

Backer, Karin (author)To reduce the heat loss in heritage buildings, this graduation research aims to explore what alternative solutions arise when thin glass is used to design an insulating glass panel that replaces the single glazing? To do so, six different designs are proposed. The first two are an IGU with thin glass and laminated thin glass. The third design is...master thesis 2022

Zaccaria, Marco (author), Peters, Timon (author), Ebert, Jan (author), Lucca, Nerio (author), Schneider, Jens (author), Louter, P.C. (author)The bending strength of flat glass panels including the effects of their edges, is commonly determined by means of the four-point bending test method. This is an established and reliable method. However, when testing glass thinner than 3 mm, large deformation may occur. This means that the calculated stresses might not correspond to the...journal article 2022

van Driel, Tim (author)Free-form façades with bent glass have become increasingly popular in recent times. As bent glass is stiffer against out-of-plane loads, it can result in thinner glass and lower embodied carbon. A promising new technique is to cold bend thin glass plates with a stiff structural edge into a hyperbolic paraboloid (hypar), and to subsequently lock...master thesis 2021

Saleh, Charbel Miled Nohra (author), Louter, P.C. (author), Turrin, M. (author)This paper investigates the stiffness and the durability of a composite panel that consists of thin glass as outer layers and a 3D printed core element from recycled PET. Thin alumino-silicate glass, mostly used for displays in computers, tablets and smartphones, is known for its flexibility, durability and high bending strength. However, for...conference paper 2020

den Heijer, Marc (author)Since the oil crises during the 1970s, there has been a growing awareness of thermal losses through windows in buildings. Nowadays, double-glazing is a common product for moderate maritime climate. In the Netherlands two permit requirements are calculations regarding nearly zero energy and environmental performance of a building. In order to...master thesis 2019

Guidi, Marina (author)From the beginning of the 21st century, thin glass has been used as a screen protector for electronic devices and smartphones. During the last 10 years, several studies have been carried out to introduce the thin glass in the building industry. The advantages of this material are light weight, high strength and high flexibility. On the other...master thesis 2019

Oliveira Santos, Francisco (author), Louter, P.C. (author), Ramôa Correia, João (author)Thin glass is currently widespread in mobile devices and has great potential for applications in buildings. However, presently there is no standard method to determine the strength of thin glass for building applications and there is little experimental data available on its mechanical behaviour. Hence, this paper presents experimental and...conference paper 2018

Ottens, Rens (author)Creating smooth, double curved glass façades from thin glass offers highly curved and complex shaped architecture that is less heavy and still transparent compared to conventionally used hot- or cold bent glass. Although bigger curvatures can be achieved with hot bent glass, it requires non-reusable moulds in the fabrication process, whereas...master thesis 2018
