3. Overview
Background: Explosions and shear failures
Experimental programs
Analyses of experiments
Parametric study
Conclusions & further research
3 (18)
4. Increase the understanding of shear in concrete structural elements
subjected to explosions
The loads simplified as uniformly distributed
Beams and slabs analysed 1:2 scale
Aim and scope
4 (18)
5. “Explosions can be both awesome and devastating” (Kinney & Graham, 1985)
Explosions generate a shock wave (blast wave)
The blast wave propagates at supersonic speed in all directions
Shock front
Ground surface
Explosions and shear failures
5 (18)
6. The blast wave profile
The blast load parameters:
- peak pressure
- duration
An equivalent triangular blast wave in
design and parametric studies
Explosions and shear failures
6 (18)
7. Explosions at close range high pressures
Such loads can cause shear failures
Blast load
Explosions and shear failures

8. Shear is a brittle failure
Limited energy absorption capabilities
Shear failures appear in regions with high shear stresses

9. General approach
1) Simulations (Abaqus/Explicit) with test results as reference
2) The evolution of shear failures analysed
3) A separate parametric study using Abaqus/Explicit
Experiments and analyses
9 (18)
10. Experiments in a shock tube (FOI)
High explosive charge
Beam cross-section 290 160 mm2
Measurements of load and
beam response
Experiments (1) – dynamic tests on beams
10 (18)
12. Tests by Slawson (1984)
Slab 1500 184 mm2
Blast pressures across roof slab from high
explosives charges
Measurements of loads and slab response
Experiments (2) – dynamic tests on slabs
12 (18)
13. The roof slab separated from the
walls in several tests
Experiments (2) – dynamic tests on slabs
Failed slabs
13 (18)
14. Analyses of experiments (2)
Direct shear failure
Inclined compression struts at supports
Crushing of the struts
A ”straight” central part of the slab
14 (18)
15. Parametric study
3 different beam depths –
260 mm, 160 mm and 84 mm
2 different reinforcement ratios
Simply supported; 1500 mm span

16. Parametric study
Somplified triangular load
Uniformly distributed load
Variations of peak pressure
and duration
Pressure

17. Conclusions
Shear is controlled by
- peak pressure
- load duration
- structural stiffness
Flexural shear flexural cracks shear cracks
Indicates that the same calculation model as in static shear may be used
Direct shear crushing/splitting of compression struts
Indicates that strut-and-tie models can be used
A size effect appears to exist in dynamic shear (similar to static shear) 17 (18)
18. Further research
Extended simulations with varying
- span-to-depth ratios
- support conditions
- load levels and durations
- load distributions
- other material models for concrete
Extended experimental program
Further analyses and development of design tools
