This study was conducted published to investigate there liability of the equation pressure-impulse (PI) reinforced concrete column in previous studies. Equation involves three different levels of damage criteria known as D =0.2, D =0.5 and D =0.8. The damage criteria known as a minor when 0-0.2, 0.2-0.5 is known as moderate damage, high damage known as 0.5-0.8, and 0.81 of the structure is cons...

A general process for optimization of a sandwich panel to minimize the effects of air blast loading is presented here. The panel geometry consists of two metal face plates with a crushable honeycomb or other type of core. Optimization is necessary as there is strong coupling between the several variables and the physics, which makes parametric studies relatively ineffective. Virtual testing is ...
