Abstract:
Intelligent new-energy vehicles increasingly require front windshield laminated glass to integrate electrochromic dimming, low-temperature rapid defrosting and an embedded digital-television (DTV) antenna. The superposition of multilayer polymer films, screen-printed silver conductive traces and embedded flat wiring harnesses, however, introduces thermo-mechano-electromagnetic coupling failure modes. Here, we propose three hierarchically optimized substructures—a stepped-gradient ceramic anti-corrosion shielding layer, a 0.2 mm-protrusion full-wrap harness bonding configuration and full-wrap silicone sealing for marginal un-melted polyvinyl butyral (PVB) zones—and couple them with an ISO 5459-conformant unified symmetric datum (PD-A) tolerance chain model. A fully coupled thermo-mechano-electromagnetic finite-element numerical model, validated through a four-level mesh-convergence study and a five-factor parametric sensitivity matrix, is developed to quantify interfacial stress evolution and electromagnetic interference attenuation. A coupon-grade multi-station test fixture (denoted 8S10Z-39J-900) is fabricated and used for systematic cleavage peeling, alternating thermal cycling, hygrothermal/UV accelerated aging, optical modulation, electrothermal defrost and antenna electromagnetic tests. All quantitative results are reported as mean ± standard deviation of n = 6 parallel specimens and analyzed by one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey HSD post-hoc test at α = 0.05. The optimized harness scheme reduces the maximum interfacial shear stress from 18.46 ± 0.42 MPa to 10.58 ± 0.31 MPa (42.7 % reduction, p
