The present contribution aims to examine the erosion behavior of soda-lime-silica glass in connection with damage interaction and angle effects. Experimental observations are reported on glass plates subjected to sandblasting process using alumina abrasive particles for different sandblasting durations and impact angles. The damage and erosion mechanisms are computed through a numerical model of the sandblasted glass plate. The glass internal stiffness degradation due to impact process is accounted for by an anisotropic stress-based continuum damage mechanics model. The glass erosion is simulated by means of a vanishing element technique using the critical values of damage components as failure criterion. A parametric numerical study is carried out to bring insights into damage interaction and angle effects on the material loss.
