Optimization of Reinforced Concrete Panels with Rear Face Steel Liner under Impact Loading#
نویسندگان
چکیده
We investigate the effect of steel plate lining at the rear face of the reinforced concrete panel on the ballistic properties using the semi-empirical model. We determine the structure of the two-layered shield that provides the maximum critical velocity for a given area density and depends on the mechanical properties of concrete and characteristics of the reinforcement. It is found that the optimal shield with lining has a considerable advantage over the shield without lining.

Strain Behavior of Concrete Panels Subjected to Different Nose Shapes of Projectile Impact
This study evaluates the fracture properties and rear-face strain distribution of nonreinforced and hooked steel fiber-reinforced concrete panels penetrated by projectiles of three different nose shapes: sharp, hemispherical, and flat. The sharp projectile nose resulted in a deeper penetration because of the concentration of the impact force. Conversely, the flat projectile nose resulted in sha...

This paper aims to study the numerical behavior of concrete slabs reinforced with perforated steel plates (PSPs) through nonlinear finite element (FE) analysis performed by ABAQUS. In this regard, conventional steel rebars (CSRs) are replaced with (PSPs) in the concrete slabs. Due to the particular geometry that the configuration of the hole provides, these PSPs are more integrated with surroun...
متن کاملDrop weight impact on hybrid-fiber ECC blast/shelter panels
This paper presents the results of an experimental study to evaluate the damage and failure mode of hybrid-fiber engineered cementitious composite (ECC) panels caused by large projectiles or fragments with the aim towards quantifying the extent to which hybrid-fiber ECC improves the resistance of blast panels against impact loading. Drop weight tests are conducted on full-scale blast/shelter pa...

متن کاملRetrofitting of Reinforced Concrete Beams with Steel Fiber Reinforced Composite Jackets
In the present study, a new method for retrofitting reinforced concrete beam is introduced in which steel-concrete composite jackets containing steel fiber is used. For this purpose, 75% of the peripheral surface of reinforced concrete beams was initially reinforced using steel plates and bolts, and steel fiber reinforced concrete was used between the steel plates and the peripheral surfaces of...
