Study of the Effects of Transient Load on Envelope Structure

Article Preview

Abstract:

The contribution compares the response of envelope of chosen structure to the effects of transient load. The load was caused by air blast wave due to deflagration of methane-air mixture. The paper deals with interaction of incident blast wave and envelope structure. Considering blast courses obtained from experiments, two simplified models of load were developed. Load, defined by both load functions, was applied to 3D numerical model of the structure. Calculated result values of deflections of wall elements were compared to experimentally obtained deflections.
