Abstract

At this point, the computational solution strategy introduced in this work is to be applied. The investigations are limited to common data for geometries and materials used. Thereby we focus on data of photovoltaic modules as they are a prominent application of an Anti-Sandwich (Aßmus, Global structural analysis at photovoltaic modules: theory, numerics, application (in German). Dissertation, Otto von Guericke University Magdeburg, 2018, [1]). A distinction is made between parameter and case studies. In the parameter studies the effects of the variation of geometrical and physical quantities are investigated, while in the case studies examinations are carried out at realistic loading scenarios from natural weathering.
