Modelling of impacts on fibre-metal laminates requires understanding the interaction
between the composite and metal layers. From the many parameters that affect the laminate …

The explosive blast is a major threat in the form of a terrorist attack to damage defense,
aerospace, as well as civilian structures. This hazard of an explosive attack affects the lives …

This numerical study represents an effort to characterize the dynamic behavior of distinct
armor-grade steel plates and fiber metal laminates (FMLs) of the same masses under blast …

Experimental investigations on the laser-welded triangular corrugated core sandwich panels
and equivalent solid plates subjected to air blast loading are presented. The experiments …

Structural blastworthiness is an ability of a structure to deform with a controlled force and
maintain a survival space around the occupants to minimize injury risks during a blast …

This paper presents a comparative study of numerical, experimental and empirical
techniques on the effect of localised air blast loads on mild steel and armour steel plates …

In the present study, a 2D-based large-scale metallic auxetic double arrowhead honeycomb
core sandwich panel (DAHSP) was proposed and its deformation response, energy …

This paper presents the results of an experimental and numerical investigation into the
response of circular Domex-700 MC steel plates to repeated uniform blast loads. The …

The Multi Material Arbitrary Lagrange Euler (MMALE) method is widely used method for
numerical investigation of structural response under blast loading. However the method is …

The LS-DYNA software was employed to investigate the dynamic response of I-core
sandwich panels under combined blast and fragment loading. The combined blast loading …
