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:

Improving the Impact Resistance of Reinforced Concrete
TL;DR: In this paper, the impact response of concrete structures is assessed using experiments involving the impact of projectiles of different nose shapes on slab specimens, and the material behavior at high strain rate is established using split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) testing at varying strain rates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Probabilistic demand models and performance-based fragility estimates for concrete protective structures subjected to missile impact
TL;DR: In this article , the authors developed probabilistic demand models for protecting structures subjected to hard missile impact, which were estimated using a defined performance-based design framework with three performance levels associated with four damage states, from minor damage to total collapse.

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.
