I made all plies via boolean operations to ensure full geometric fit, but apparently this does not lead to 'lamination' during the build of the compound.
I assume I need to define ties between the surfaces but then how do I ensure contact is made?
The wobbly thing is the interlayer. The gently sloped thing is the glass ply that sees the pressure and holds the Z-constraint. The flat plate is the un-loaded face sliding in the X- and Y- constraints. I have applied the pressure on the surface that has the boundaries that hold the constraint in Z-direction, else it would fly off into space. FEM model of bonded laminated glazing

Re: FEM model of bonded laminated glazing
3 Cubes (t=12+1,5+12 mm), 2 different materials (glass+pla).
Put the cubes into a BooleanFragments (mode=Compsolid), upgrade to Compound for FEM.
For a good resolution of the interlayer you get a lot of cells (60000 in this case).
Hope that helps.
