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:

Effect of the plastic hinge and boundary conditions on the impact behavior of reinforced concrete beams
Thong M. Pham,Hong Hao +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of the plastic hinge and boundary conditions on the behavior of reinforced concrete (RC) beams under slow impact-velocity events was investigated by using LS-Dyna and verified against experimental results.

Local response of concrete slabs to low velocity missile impact
TL;DR: In this paper, a two-stage model incorporating a first stage penetration algorithm into an infinite medium and a second stage of punching shear is presented to predict the penetration and perforation of concrete slabs impacted by low velocity missiles.

Behavior of steel fiber-reinforced concrete slabs under impact load
TL;DR: In this article, seven intermediate-scale slabs were constructed and tested to failure under sequential drop-weight impacts, and the results showed that the addition of the steel fibers was effective in increasing slab capacity, reducing crack widths and spacings, and mitigating local damage under impact.

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.
