Structural Damage Caused by Impulsive Loads: A Theoretical Analysis
نویسنده
چکیده
A general theoretical technique is presented for the estimation of structural damage caused by impulsive loads. The technique, though approximate, takes account of differences that may exist between the elastic and plastic modes of deformation. A detailed analysis, with some numerical results, is presented for the case when the impulsive load is a uniformly distributed pressure whose magnitude varies time-wise as a rectangular pulse.

There are only limited studies that directly correlate the increase in reinforced concrete (RC) panel structural capacities in resisting the blast loads with different RC panel structural properties in terms of blast loading characteristics, RC panel dimensions, steel reinforcement ratio and concrete material strength. In this paper, numerical analyses of dynamic response and damage of the one-...
متن کاملStability analysis of nonlinear hybrid delayed systems described by impulsive fuzzy differential equations
In this paper we introduce some stability criteria of nonlinear hybrid systems with time delay described by impulsive hybrid fuzzy system of differential equations. Firstly, a comparison principle for fuzzy differential system based on a notion of upper quasi-monotone nondecreasing is presented. Here, for stability analysis of fuzzy dynamical systems, vector Lyapunov-like functions are defined....
متن کاملEvaluation of Damage Distribution in Elements of Dual Frames
Researches show that the strength criterion is inadequate for design of structures against seismic loads. Since structures yield and experience plastic deformation under strong ground motion, considering structural damage with inelastic behavior may be a considerable criterion for design and control of the structures.In this paper, three steel structures with dual system consisting of intermedi...
متن کاملThe axisymmetric response of a fluid-filled spherical shell to a local radial impulse--a model for head injury.
This investigation is concerned with determination of the dynamic response of a fluid-filled spherical shell subjected to a local radial impulsive load. From the application point of view, such a fluid-shell system is considered to be a simple, but to date, the most improved theoretical model representing the human head when subjected to impulsive external loads. Analysis is based on linear she...
