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:

Probabilistic assessment of aircraft hazard for nuclear power plants
TL;DR: In this article, an analysis of aircraft accidents is presented to establish the probability of an aircraft hitting a nuclear power plant, based on United States data, and new formulas are proposed to cover the range of parameters encountered in aircraft engine impact.
