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:

Spherical cavity-expansion model for penetration of reinforced-concrete targets
TL;DR: In this paper, a dynamic spherical cavity-expansion penetration model for reinforced-concrete targets is developed with consideration of the circumferential restriction effect derived from reinforcing bars in the crushed region.

Development of Empirical formula Prediction on Critical Impact Energy for Perforation Phenomena on Concrete Structures
TL;DR: In this paper, the minimum required kinetic energy for perforation on the concrete structures generated by hard missile using curve fitting empirical study was calculated using an empirical formula, which can be used for making design recommendations and design procedures for determining the dynamic reaction of the target to foil perforations.

Empirical models for predicting protective properties of concrete shields against high-speed impact
TL;DR: In this article, a survey of empirical models used for describing high-speed normal penetration of rigid strikers into concrete shields, including recently posed models, is presented, along with recommendations on the range of applicability of the models and additional restrictions implied by the used mathematical formulations.
