The dynamics of explosion and its use

TL;DR: In this article, a mathematical model for smooth blasting pattern was proposed to analyze and design an effective smooth wall blasting pattern to achieve an undamaged periphery rock-wall, where the impact of discontinuities and design parameters on smoothwall blasting was explained.

TL;DR: In this paper, a dynamic ultra-high-strain-rate forming method driven by laser impact is reported, and it is shown that laser shock forming is a mechanical, not a thermal process, and the strain rate can go up to 107 −109 −1, two or more orders higher than that of all the existing forming methods.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a comprehensive approach to simulate the blast response of a lined cavity in a porous soil by using a coupled Godunov-variational-difference approach.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors employed a more detailed reinforced concrete (RC) model with distinctive definitions of concrete and reinforcement material performance to find the correlation between the scaled distance and the damage level of low-rise and medium-rise masonry infilled RC frames.
