Different Approaches of Numerical Simulation of Blast for Civil Engineering Applications

  • Conference paper
  • First Online:
Soft Target Protection

Abstract

The aim of the paper is to describe various approaches of numerical simulation techniques, with a special focus on air blast effects on structures. In this regard, the document summarizes and describes commonly available commercial software tools for the design and simulation of civil engineering structures and components under impulsive dynamic loads. In conclusion, some useful examples of numerical modelling of selected constructional elements are also presented.
