Forensic analysis of small architectural and vehicle glass fragments
Glass fragments are frequently recovered during criminal investigations as they can provide links between the crime scene, suspects, or victims. The elemental composition of

"Elemental analysis methods are used (should/shall be) when other methods of comparison fail to distinguish two glass fragments as having different sources."
The analysis of glass evidence consists of comparing the physical and chemical properties of a fragment retrieved from a suspect to a possible source of the glass and then assessing the
This study compares results for the μXRF analysis of full‐thickness (≈2 mm) and thin glass fragments (10 to 50 μm) for different types of float glass.
The given sample set includes both architectural and automotive glass fragments, which were found to be indistinguishable by refractive index measurements (each of the associated
Glass fragments are frequently recovered during criminal investigations as they can provide links between the crime scene, suspects, or victims. The elemental composition of
• For the large glass sample size (> 2-3 mm, and using a +/- 3 SD criterion for the Ca/Fe net intensity ratios, 35 pairs were found to be indistinguishable (17% indistinguishable).
This study compares results for the μXRF analysis of full‐thickness (≈2 mm) and thin glass fragments (10 to 50 μm) for different types of float glass.
In this study, strain glass states with different degrees of lattice distortion are observed in Ni 2MnTi. Moreover, a dual-glass state consisting of strain glass and spin glass is
The small fragments (0.5 mm to 2 mm) were attached to a petrographic slide using double-sided graphite tape (Figure 2). This process was repeated for all the surrogates, as well as the three
