Development and Multi-Scale Characterization of a Self-Consolidating High-Strength Concrete for Quasi-Static and Transient Loads

Systematic development of a new self-consolidating high-strength cementitious armor material, for use in protective construction against blast and ballistic impact, is presented. Multi-scale experimental methods are developed and implemented to optimize the material for quasi-static compression and...
