This paper presents recent efforts that used polyurea to reinforce clay brick masonry unit
walls in dynamic event. In order to investigate the peak pressure of damage, failure modes …

Clay brick masonry unit (CBMU) walls are widely used in building structures, and its damage
and protection under explosion loads have been a matter of concern in the field of …

Enhancing the blast resistance of building walls is a research hotspot in the field of anti-
terrorism and explosion protection. In this study, numerical simulation and experimental …

As a means to lessen the threat of an accidental blast, the polyurea sprayed reinforcement of
masonry walls has attracted extensive attention. In this research, the detailed micro …

A blast event may result in structural damage, generating high velocity fragments that
usually come from masonry walls. To reduce the extent of damage from an explosion, one …

Masonry walls change brittleness and gain ductility with reinforcement in the bed joint. The
dynamic force enhancement increase by a factor of 4 in comparison to unreinforced …

Autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) blocks have widespread popularity in the construction
industry. In addition to lightness, these materials have other advantages, including fire …

The most widely used terrorist tactic is the improvised explosive device, which can range in
size from hand-held to truck-size. Most casualties and injuries sustained in such an attack …

In this paper, available experimental studies on clay-brick and concrete block URM walls
subjected to blast loading are briefly reviewed and summarised. Studies conducted to …

An approximate analysis method is proposed to determine the blast resistance of fiber-
reinforced polymer (FRP)-strengthened masonry walls. The method relates the static to …
