TEST METHOD FOR GLASS STRESS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18242724 titled 'TEST METHOD FOR GLASS STRESS
Simplified Explanation
The glass stress test method involves breaking a glass, analyzing the shape of the crack in a plan view, determining the breakage origin based on the crack shape, analyzing a cross-section of the breakage origin, and calculating the stress of the glass based on the cross-sectional analysis result.
- Glass stress test method:
* Break a glass. * Analyze the shape of the crack in a plan view. * Find the breakage origin based on the crack shape. * Analyze a cross-section of the breakage origin. * Calculate the stress of the glass based on the cross-sectional analysis result.

Original Abstract Submitted
A glass stress test method includes breaking a glass, analyzing a shape of a crack of a broken portion of the glass in a plan view, finding a breakage origin of the glass based on the shape of the crack in the plan view, analyzing a cross-section of the breakage origin, and calculating a stress of the glass based on a cross-sectional analysis result of the breakage origin. The stress of the glass is calculated as a value proportional to a floor constant defined by a condition of a floor surface disposed when the glass is broken.
