A review of procedures for the analysis and design of concrete structures to resist missile impact effects
TLDR
In this paper, the effects of a hard impact on a concrete barrier wall are discussed. But this paper only deals with the effect of "hard" missile impact and does not deal with the impact on "soft" barrier walls.About:

A rate-dependent dynamic damage model in peridynamics for concrete under impact loading:
TL;DR: In this article, a non-local peridynamic theory was proposed to study the dynamic behavior and impact damage and failure of concrete materials and structures, and a dynamic damage model was reformulated under the framework of the nonlinear peridynamics theory.
Journal ArticleDOI
A unified approach for concrete impact
TL;DR: In this paper, a unified approach for concrete impact is presented, which represents an extension and further development of the UMIST formulae, which can be used with reasonable confidence for large mass low velocity projectile impact onto reinforced concrete targets and significantly overpredict the perforation of very thick concrete targets.

Damage evaluation of 500 MWe Indian Pressurized Heavy Water Reactor nuclear containment for aircraft impact
TL;DR: In this article, double containment walls and multi-barrier structural configurations for aircraft impact with higher energies are studied. But the authors focus on the case of nuclear power plants and do not consider the impact of commercial aircraft.

Projectile penetration of reinforced concrete blocks: Test and analysis
I.M. Kamal,E.M. Eltehewy +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present results of an experimental test and numerical investigation of reinforced concrete blocks' penetration resistance against a steel blunt-nose projectile with a diameter of 23mm and a mass of 175g with striking velocity about 980m/s hitting concrete blocks reinforced by different number of layers of woven wire steel mesh (Ferrocement).
