A review of blast loading in the urban environment
Urban blasts have become a significant concern in recent years. Whilst free-field blasts are
well understood, the introduction of an urban setting (or any complex geometry) gives rise to …

A review of current safe distance calculations and the risk of mild traumatic brain injury
AR Loflin, CE Johnson - Shock Waves, 2024 - Springer
Explosive breaching is a tactic operational professionals use to gain rapid entry and tactical
advantage. This tactic exposes individuals to repeated low-level blasts (LLB), overpressure …

A numerical investigation of blast-structure interaction effects on primary blast injury risk and the suitability of existing injury prediction methods
Explosions increasingly occur in densely populated, urban locations. Primary blast injuries
(PBIs), caused by exposure to blast wave overpressure, can be predicted using injury …
