Abstract
In structures and infrastructures, blast pressure loads arising from explosions can cause failure involving highly nonlinear aspects associated with multiple physical phases, multiple scales, and multiple criteria. Structural failures in explosions may include crushing and fracture as well as buckling and plastic collapse. Such failure constitutes structural crashworthiness behavior. In reality, blast pressure loads are distributed non-uniformly over individual structural members (as described in Chap. 9). Therefore, it is very important to use the actual load distributions to obtain accurate results from structural response analyses. This chapter describes computational modeling techniques for simulating nonlinear structural responses under blast pressure loads using nonlinear finite element method modeling.
