Safe dynamic design of structures. [PDF]
, 2000 The Design of structures under dynamic loading is a demanding subject in safety of engineering design since conventional static failure criteria are unable to deal with structures under transient loading.

Transition Between Regular Reflection and Mach Reflection in the Dual-Solution Domain [PDF]
, 2007 A study of the shock-reflection domain for steady flow is presented. Conditions defining boundaries between different possible shock-reflection solutions are given, and where possible, simple analytic expressions for these conditions are presented. A new,

Detonation Induced Strain in Tubes [PDF]
, 2010 When a detonation wave propagates through a piping system, it acts as a traveling pressure load to the pipe wall. The detonation wave must be followed by an expansion wave in order to bring the combustion products to zero velocity at the ignition end ...

Detonation Diffraction in Mixtures with Various Degrees of Instability [PDF]
, 2005 Planar laser induced fluorescence (PLIF) is widely used in combustion diagnostics but has only recently been successfully applied to detonation. The strong spatial variations in temperature, pressure, and background composition under these conditions ...

The immersed-body gas-solid interaction model for blast analysis in fractured solid media [PDF]
, 2016 Blast-induced fractures are simulated by a novel gas-solid interaction model, which combines an immersed-body method and a cohesive zone fracture model. The approach employs a finite element fluid model and a combined finite-discrete element solid model.

The aerodynamics of curved jets and breakaway in Coanda flares [PDF]
, 1991 An investigation was carried out into external-Coanda Effect flares designed by British Petroleum International plc. The phenomenon of interest was breakaway of an under expanded axisymmetric curved wall jet from the guiding surface due to high blowing ...

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.Seismic waves with tensile stress, high amplitude, and low frequency are most likely to trigger block instability and sliding. Blocks with a single sliding surface are more prone to movement than those with multiple constraints, and roofâpositioned blocks are especially vulnerable to slide.
