[0002] In the aviation field, flight safety is always the top priority, and the windshield is an important protective and visual protection component of the aircraft, so its safety cannot be ignored. The aircraft windshield must not only withstand conventional factors such as aerodynamic pressure and temperature changes during flight, but also withstand emergencies such as bird strikes and foreign object impacts. In some cases, the structural layer of the windshield will be damaged instantly, which may lead to serious flight accidents. Therefore, aircraft windshields usually have damage safety design requirements, that is, when the structural layer is suddenly damaged, the remaining structure of the windshield should be sufficient to support the aircraft to return.
