As an excellent anti-blast material, polyurea (PU) has been widely used in the reinforcement
of masonry walls, RC structures, steel structures, and composite materials. The advances in …

Rigid-perfectly plastic (R-PP) models are widely employed in the study of structural impact
dynamics. However, due to the complexity of dynamic elastic-plastic behavior and the …

This paper investigates overpressure attenuation capacity and failure mechanism of the
polyurea-coated aramid fabric (PCAF) subjected to air-blast loading experimentally. The …

A confined explosion is often accompanied by the release of energy from the further
combustion of detonation products, known as the afterburning effect. This can enhance the …

The number of terrorist air blast attacks is increasing in a catastrophic way in the current era.
However, the selection of material is a crucial task for designing a high-blast-mitigating …

In this study, the dynamic response of the caisson wharf under internal explosion was
investigated using numerical method. A high-fidelity numerical model of a scaled caisson …

This study conducted experiments and numerical simulations to investigate the dynamic
response of a steel cabin subjected to blast loading from an adjacent cabin. A dual-chamber …

Dynamic response of plates subjected to blast loading is important in the design of
protective structures. Among different types of metallic and polymeric materials, performance …
