Blast response of structures : limits to deformation and fluid-structure interactions

This thesis investigates the blast response of simple structural components - fully clamped beams and plates - underwater and in air. Experimental work by others have shown that, with increasing loading intensity, these components deform in one of either three modes: mode I (large inelastic deformat...
