I do not believe the energy required to shatter glass is usable there.

It would have to be the energy needed for a shockwave to cause a human to bleed from their nose. Which I admit, I don't know to calculate that.

Also, Fragmentation of concrete is 6 J/cm^3. I also don't like how you measured the area of the wall there, your green line's width is way too generous.

Just use the same width as the red line.

I understand.
Sorry, if you can help me, I found some information that might help.
This source states the following information: "Firstly, the pressure plays an important role. In the literature it varies from 40 to 800 bar [10, 16]. A pressure of 7 bar is already sufficient to penetrate the skin."

Could you reevaluate using this information? I couldn't find a minimum amount to make a human bleed, but I think this is enough to damage internal organs.

I will redo Tanjiro's calculation with his information, I used 4 J/cc because it is the average given for the fragmentation of concrete from the Wiki.

Best to ask someone far more knowledgeable than me, I cannot evaluate something I don't know myself. I cannot help you with this at all.

Just use 6 J/cm^3, any of the numbers is fine. But there's no reason not to use the highest number, especially when you're already using it for the MPa value. Both are the same thing, you cannot use 4 J/cm^3 and 6 MPa at the same time when they mean the same.

MPa = J/cm^3

I understand, thank you very much for your attention and help 🙏🏻
I will try to ask another member for help, can you tell me who could help me?

Okay! Thanks for the information, I will redo it according to your comment.

I redid Tanjiro's calculation, could you evaluate it?

No, it equals J/cm^3 not cm^2.

You still need the depth to get the volume.
