Broken Glass Fracture Patterns - Forensic & Safety Analysis Guide #3531755 (License: Personal Use)

The top image shows a classic radial fracture pattern typical of a blunt-force impact at the center, producing a spiderweb-like network of cracks. The bottom image illustrates a linear stress fracture with conchoidal (shell-like) fragmentation, often resulting from edge impact or flexural stress. Both patterns are critical in forensic investigations to determine impact direction, force, and sequence.

Used in forensic science, accident reconstruction, architectural safety documentation, and educational materials on material failure. Matches user intent for understanding glass breakage mechanics, legal evidence interpretation, or engineering failure analysis.
