Blast Loads Behind Blast Walls:Are They Low Enough?

Structures Congress 2014, 2014
One of the greatest challenges blast engineers face is securing enough standoff for facilities that need to be protected against attacks by vehicle-borne bombs. One solution might require the use of a perimeter blast wall. Depending on their location relative to the protected facility and the standoff distance to the bomb, perimeter blast walls might ...

Blast Loads for Offshore Modules

Offshore Technology Conference, 1991
ABSTRACT This paper discusses the methods by which the overpressures created by a hydrocarbon explosion within a congested offshore module may be calculated. The nature of the results obtained from numerical simulation are discussed leading to an approach by which a structural loading suitable for use in a linear ...

Blast Loads on Concrete Bridges

Advanced Materials Research, 2011
Nowadays few current studies on blast effects are executed with real bridge structures for economic and social reasons. This paper analyzes the blast loadings on concrete bridges and offers five characteristics: uncertainty, significant structural response, mechanic differences, rapid overpressure decay, and confinement effects.

Blast Loaded Buried Arches

Journal of the Engineering Mechanics Division, 1970
Within the range of parameters investigated, the scaling of the variables associated with the motion of the tested arch floor and the maximum thrust and bending moment are adequately verified. The acceleration, velocity, and displacement of the arch floor scale closely for the response times considered.

That Was a Blast! Air Cannons as an Introduction to Blast Loading of Structures

2024 ASEE Annual Conference & Exposition Proceedings
Blast loads on structures are exciting! They are big and surprising and set structures in motion. They also pique student interest in the details of transient loading, structural dynamics, and dynamic amplification of loads. Small-scale model demonstrations in structural dynamics courses are very common, with well-defined structures, subjected to free ...
