In SSV a team of engineers is specialized in the design and dimensioning of glass products by means of dedicated computational simulation tools; thanks to their long experience and deep knowledge of glass products and processes, our experts can perform FEM numerical elaborations to support glass manufacturers in assessing the suitability of an article to its target service applications.
Simulations of product behavior under mechanical (or thermal) load can be carried out either before the marketing of the article (i.e. during the design and prototyping phase), or for the resolution of problems manifested by the glass object during service life, with the aim of achieving improved performances by means of an optimization of design (e.g. thickness distribution, shape, glass weight, dimensions).
