A Predictive Model for Damage Assessment and Deformation in Blast Walls Resulted by Hydrocarbon Explosions

In this paper, a new method is developed to find the ductility ratio in blast walls, resulted by hydrocarbon explosions. In this method, only the explosion energy and distance from the centre of explosion are required to find the damage by using simple predictive models in terms of empirical-type fo...
