Different Approaches to Determine of the Explosion Effect, of a Homemade Explosive, on the Structure

Article Preview

Abstract:

With the increase in acts of terrorism, the effects of the explosion on structures has become highly topical. The aim of the paper is an analysis of various approaches to determine the response of blast loaded reinforced concrete pillar. Homemade ANFO (Ammonium nitrate + fuel oil) explosive will be a reference explosive. Such type of explosives is the most used one in terroristic attacks. The paper will be focused on the analysis of the blast wave, based on the experimental tests, and dynamic analysis of a structure under such load.
