Sandwich structures are fast becoming prevalent in engineering fields due to their maximal
stiffness coupled with minimal mass. However, additional to the commonly examined impact …

To ensure the normal use of concrete slab structures, it is important to understand the impact
fracture characteristics of concrete slabs. In this paper, the fracture processes of concrete …

The current study investigates the response of steel fiber-reinforced lightweight concrete
slabs under sequential impact loading. The potential damages caused by impact loads …

To accurately and effectively simulate the cracking and crushing process of concrete
pavement under multi-head impact loading, a large-scale road 3D model that considers …

For brittle and quasi-brittle materials such as rock and concrete, the impact-resistance
characteristics of the corresponding engineering structures are key to successful application …

Abstract In this study, Continuous Discontinuous Element Method (CDEM) was employed to
analyze the failure of concrete slab under drop-hammer impact at the mesoscopic level …

Concrete structures are usually subjected to both static as a long term and dynamic as a
short term loads. The impact resistance of plain concrete is low and that's mainly due to a …

In-depth analysis of asteroid samples will provide a key scientific basis for understanding its
evolution history, resource utilization, and life origin. Obtaining rock samples from asteroids …

In the present study, an attempt has been made to study the behavior of ultra-high
performance fiber reinforced concrete (UHPFRC) plate specimens under impact loading …

Sandwich structures are fast becoming prevalent in engineering fields due to their maximal
