| Popis: | The response of the bulkhead type of blast wall under deflagration blast pulse was studied using finite element modelling software. The behavior of unstiffened and stiffened panels was analyzed. The study aimed at determining the effect of plate and stiffener thicknesses on energy dissipation and distribution of reaction forces. This was carried out in order to optimize the response of the primary steelwork through typological and geometrical modifications of the local element. Furthermore, novel strategies for the improvement of the blast response were introduced with a focus to use alternative materials and innovative connections. The latter was assessed numerically using a simplified model and its benefits were analyzed by comparing with the traditional approach. |
