From blast wave physics to UHPC concrete and polyurea coatings, this article explores how layered design strategies help ...

Mass timber building advocates are encouraged by the results of the world’s first blast tests on full-scale structures framed with the renewable construction material. The performance metrics and ...

Blast loading, characterised by the sudden release of energy resulting in high-pressure shock waves, poses significant challenges to modern infrastructure. The ensuing structural response is complex, ...

When a warehouse at the Port of Beirut in Lebanon exploded this past summer, it released the equivalent of 500 tons of TNT and possibly as much as 1.12 kilotons of TNT, according to new research ...

Hankins and Anderson expanded its services with blast engineering. A recent project success involved a custom solution for analyzing and designing cold-formed roof trusses, which traditionally have ...
