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 reinforcement ratio on the resistance of reinforced concrete to hard projectile impact
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of reinforcement ratio on perforation resistance of reinforced concrete elements is discussed and a way to evaluate it quantitatively is proposed, where the reinforcement ratio is used as a variable.

Critical impact energies for scabbing and perforation of concrete target
TL;DR: In this article, the influence of the relative target thickness (H/d) on critical impact energies, at which local damage of various forms in concrete targets are initiated, are explored.

On the Dynamic Fragmentation of two Limestones using Edge-on Impact Tests
TL;DR: In this paper, two limestones are studied to compare the fragmentation pattern induced by dynamic loads and a quasi-static characterization allows one to determine the basic mechanical properties and compare the two rocks in terms of Weibull parameters, indicators of microstructural differences.
