Structures under Synergetic Effects of Combined Blast and Impact Loads: A State-of-the-Art Review

Table 7

Summary of different parameters and respective effects on slab panels subjected to combined blast and fragment impact loads.

Author (s)	Analysis method	Parameter lists	Remark
Tao et al. [13]	FEA (AUTODYN) and experimental	Loading sequence	The synergetic effect of blast-impact load made a slab to have severe damage on the back face
		(i) Stage-one
		(ii) Stage-two
		(iii) Stage-three
		Scaled distance	Increase in charge mass and decrease in standoff distances, creates severe damage (holes) on a slab
		(i) Charge mass
		(ii) Standoff distance
		Location of explosive	The explosive located on ground 4 m far from a wall yields smaller blast and fragment impulses
		(i) On-ground
		(ii) Above-ground
Grisaro and Dancygier [21]	Analytical and Experimental	Shape of fragments	Sharp-nose shapes had larger pressure values as compared to other fragment shapes
		(i) UFC fragment
		(ii) Flat nose
		(iii) Sharp fragment
