This paper presents the response of pile foundations to ground shocks induced by surface explosion using fully coupled and non-linear dynamic computer simulation techniques.Significant increase of terrorist attacks against significant and iconic buildings and other infrastructure components high-light the need for the blast resistant design of the structures. Blast loads ...

Given the superior strength-to-weight ratio, stiffened panels have been used extensively in the main structure of ships and underwater vehicles. The loads acting on a stiffened panel in a ship is in-plane compression or tension, resulting from the overall hull-girder bending moment or torsion, shear force resulting from the hull-girder ...

An explosion on the ground surface can cause significant damage to a tunnel located at a shallow depth below groundA comprehensive approach to simulate the effects of an explosion occurring inside a buried infrastructure tunnel on the soil surface and on nearby tunnels is presented. The approach considers all the ...

Throughout the years, underground tunnels have offered a quick and cost effective alternative to address transportation requirements in many countries. Terrorist attacks, such as the bombing of the Moscow Metro in 2004, London Subway in 2005, and Belarus in 2011, highlight that these structures should be carefully designed to withstand ...
