Archivio Istituzionale della RicercaIn the present work the stress field due to hail impacts on semi-flexible photovoltaic (PV) modules is analysed. Experimental tests and finite element simulations have been performed by considering different arrangements for the stack of layers of the panels and different kind of substrates in order to identify the type of support that minimizes the extension of the solar cell region where high tensile stresses take place under impacts. Practical hints for production and installation of the modules are derived from the obtained results.

Abstract
In the present work the stress field due to hail impacts on semi-flexible photovoltaic (PV) modules is analysed. Experimental tests and finite element simulations have been performed by considering different arrangements for the stack of layers of the panels and different kind of substrates in order to identify the type of support that minimizes the extension of the solar cell region where high tensile stresses take place under impacts. Practical hints for production and installation of the modules are derived from the obtained results.
