About

Blast effects on structures is an interdisciplinary academic field that investigates the dynamic interaction between transient, high-intensity pressure waves generated by explosive events and the built environment. It analyzes the resulting structural response, including deformation, stress, and potential failure mechanisms, to understand and predict the performance and vulnerability of buildings and infrastructure under blast loading. This research is crucial for developing protective design strategies, evaluating existing structures, and mitigating risks associated with accidental or intentional detonations.
