About the dynamic strength enhancement of concrete-like materials in a split Hopkinson pressure bar test

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the application of split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) to determine the dynamic strength of concrete-like materials whose compressive strength is hydrostatic-stress-dependent and showed that the apparent dynamic strength enhancement beyond the strain-rate of 102 s−1 is strongly influenced by the hydrostatic stress effect due to the lateral inertia confinement in a SHPB test.

Local impact effects of hard missiles on concrete targets

TL;DR: In this paper, a collection of empirical formulae to predict the penetration depth, scabbing thickness and perforation thickness is presented in both Imperial and SI units and the current status of various design codes is summarized based on a dimensional analysis, dominant non-dimensional parameters that may influence the local impact effects on concrete targets are obtained and then used to present some of the test data Various nose shape factors are compared and a unique definition of the nose shape factor is suggested Analytical models and numerical simulation methods for penetration are summarized Criticisms are made for the current understanding of

Analysis of building collapse under blast loads

TL;DR: The analysis of the structural failure of a reinforced concrete building caused by a blast load is presented in this paper, where all the process from the detonation of the explosive charge to the complete demolition, including the propagation of the blast wave and its interaction with the structure is reproduced.

Further investigation on the dynamic compressive strength enhancement of concrete-like materials based on split Hopkinson pressure bar tests. Part I: Experiments

TL;DR: Zhang et al. as discussed by the authors employed numerical simulation to further demonstrate that the unexpected radial confinement in an SHPB test is responsible for the increase of the dynamic compressive strength of concrete-like materials at strain-rates from 10 1 to 10 3 ǫs −1.

Behavior of Concrete Under Biaxial Stresses

TL;DR: In this paper, the results of an extensive series of tests of three types of concrete under biaxial loadings are used to develop stress-strain relations for concrete subjected to bialastic stress states, by means of a decomposition of the stresses and strains into their hydrostatic and deviatoric portions.

Plasticity in reinforced concrete

Wai-Fah Chen
TL;DR: In this article, some basic properties of concrete and steel are discussed and failure criteria of concrete elasticity and failure of brittle fracture models are discussed. But the authors focus on the failure criteria and not the elasticity of the model.
