Single Degree of Freedom Analysis of Steel Beams under Blast Loading

Article Preview

Abstract:

The paper deals with the analysis of steel beams subjected to blast load approximated as a one degree system of freedom (SDOF). It requires knowing the parameters of blast pressure wave, its effect on structure and the tools for the solution of dynamic analysis. The blast wave is estimated with linear decay and exponential decay using positive and negative phase. The results of SDOF model are compared with the corresponding experimental accelerations and strain time-histories. There is a described dynamic analysis for such structure.
