- Vol. 37, Iss: 2, pp 183-203
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.

Preliminary analysis of an rc containment structure subjected to aircraft-impact

TL;DR: In this paper, a preliminary analysis for aircraft impact into a prestressed concrete containment building is performed with different methods and with a military jet and a large passenger aircraft, and the results of the analysis are evaluated and suggestions for more detailed modelling are made.

Evaluation of Local Damage to Reinforced Concrete Panels Subjected to Oblique Impact of Rigid and Soft Missiles

TL;DR: In this paper, the results of simulation analyses for evaluating the local damage to a reinforced concrete (RC) panel subjected to normal and oblique impacts by rigid and soft missiles, by using the simulation method that was validated using the result of previous impact experiments are clarified.

Fragment scattering of concrete specimen subjected to high speed loading and simulation using distinct element method

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe a scenario where the following three parties are involved in a firefight over a fire extinguisher: (1) the owners, (2) the firefighters, and (3) the fire extinguishers.

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.

Probabilistic assessment of aircraft hazard for nuclear power plants. i.

TL;DR: In this paper, 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 the authors concluded that the aircraft risk is usually acceptably low for the typical case studied here.
