A review of procedures for the analysis and design of concrete structures to resist missile impact effects
TL;DR: 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.
