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:

Comparison of the Approaches Used for the Evaluation of Accidental Load Drops in Nuclear Power Plant Structures
Asadollah Bassam,Javad Moslemian +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, two common approaches that can be used to evaluate the impact of an accidental load drop in US nuclear power plants are evaluated, i.e., calculating the elasto-plastic energy absorption capacity of the member and comparing it to the energy imparted during impact.
Comparison of experimental, semi-empirical and non-linear finite element analyses of nuclear containment structures for impact loads
TL;DR: In this article, an attempt has been made to work out the analysis of the reinforced concrete target upon an impact of aircraft in terms of penetration, spalling, scabbing and perforation.

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.
