In this work, a methodology is proposed to statistically model the fracture behavior of acrylic glasses for numerical simulation. The aim is to give guidance to users of comparable materials. In detail, the collection of necessary measurement data and their analysis is presented. By applying the model, a stochastic finite-element simulation is performed for a head impact onto an automotive rear-side window made from acrylic glass. Based on the wide spread of the resulting head injury criteria, the relevance of a statistical material characterization for product safety is discussed. Marcel Berlinger studied mechanical engineering at Technische Hochschule Mittelhessen – University of Applied Sciences, and completed his Master's degree in 2017. Since then, he has been a research assistant and doctoral student in the Team of Prof. Dr.-Ing. habil. Stefan Kolling at the Institute of Mechanics and Materials at Technische Hochschule Mittelhessen.
