die less explosive forming of circular plates is one of the most useful methods in the industries especially chemical applications. manufacturing of large vessel's head, multilayer rings and some parts of heat exchangers are the example of applying this method. many theoretical and experimental researches about examining the explosive forming of simple and single layer plate have been done...

Specific to blast loading, bond shear tests between carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) strips and concrete have not yet been reported in literature, the best knowledge of authors. Given high potential strengthening with CFRP increase resistance, it is necessary better understand dynamic interaction under impulse. This article presents a new experimental setup developed order study driven co...

At this time, there is a pressing need to develop new technologies capable of detecting, identifying, and potentially neutralizing energetic materials, preferably from a stand-off distance. To address this need, an improved understanding of the mechanics of energetic materials, prior to detonation or defl agration, must be developed. In light of this, the present effort seeks to characterize th...

In this study, an artificial neural network (ANN) model is created to predict aluminium-stainless steel explosive clads' tensile and shear strengths. The parameters for the cladding process, such as loading ratio (mass of flyer, 0.6-1.0), standoff distance (5-9 mm), preset angle (0°-10°), groove in base plate (V/Dovetail), were altered. ANN algorithm was trained Python using strengths gathered ...

This paper presents a study on the dynamic behavior of thin aluminum plates subjected to consecutive fragment impact and blast loading. To this end, two separate experimental setups are used. In first setup, 2 mm thick EN-AW-1050A-H24 were ballistic fragment-simulating projectiles (FSPs). Experiments carried out for FSP calibers 7.62 12.7 considering both single triple impacts with variations i...
