In this section we consider two specific aspects of the history of glass ... 

In Chapter 2 we gave a brief history of glass. We will expand on that discussion here. Glass, like flint, is intimately connected with human history because of the use of obsidian, which is a natural glass. Nobody knows for sure when the first glass objects were made. The oldest...

As the relaxation processes in the glassy state and glass transition region are non-exponential and nonlinear, the theories must take account of the thermal history of glass formation and the asymmetry of the relaxations, which depend on how the system departs from equilibrium.

The thermal history of glass has to be carefully controlled in order to design the level of residual stresses. When the material passes through the viscous-elastic...
