Synopsis

The response of structures and structural elements to explosive shock or high speed impact is of growing interest to scientists, research engineers and designers throughout the world. Attacks on civil and military buildings, bridges and transport vehicles by terrorists mean that more attention has to be given at the design stage to the effects of explosions and impact, and to the high speed penetration of attack weapons. New design codes of practice need to be based on scientific research, both analytical and experimental, and there is a need for the cross-fertilisation of ideas between military and civil experts. This book brings together the experience of specialists in the behaviour of concrete and metal structures, both above and below ground, to the actions of blast, penetration and high speed collisions. The multi-disciplinary meeting was held to bring together workers in a wide range of engineering activities, who employ common analytical and experimental methods in their estimation of structural response. The results of the meeting will help to stimulate future research and analysis on an international scale.
