Numerical and Experimental Analysis of the Effect of Rigid Barriers on Blast Wave Propagation
Original language description
Many terrorist attacks have been carried out in recent years, such as in Oslo, Norway (2011), and more recently in Boston, Massachusetts, and in Volgograd, Russia (both 2013). Terrorist attacks target primarily public facilities, such as railway stations, government buildings, embassies, and the transport infrastructure. Research on the effect of blast loading on structures and interiors has gained considerable attention. Although there are many types of terrorist attacks, this paper focuses specifically on bomb attacks. Two different types of bomb attacks can be distinguished. In Oslo and Boston, the explosion occurred in an open space. In Volgograd, the explosion occurred inside a confined space. This paper primarily focuses on the type of bombing observed in Volgograd by presenting reduced-scale experiments on the effect of rigid barriers on blast wave propagation in the confined space of a railway station. The experimental data set was used for calibrating numerical finite-element
