Abstract

This paper proposes and demonstrates a numerical simulation method suitable to analyze the local damage and dynamic response of the structures composed of the reinforced concrete (RC) and/or the geological materials subjected to the severe impulsive loading by the aircraft impact and the high explosive detonation. After the brief description about the numerical simulation method, the former part of this work attests that the present method has an enough accuracy to simulate the dynamic behavior of the RC structures subjected to the impulsive loading, through the comparison of the numerical analysis results with those of reference experiments. In the latter part of this work, three-dimensional numerical simulation results are investigated which were performed by using the basically the same analysis method as applied in the former part, but for much more complicated physical system. Through the discussion on the numerical simulation results the effectiveness of the present method is demonstrated from the viewpoint of the high-velocity impact safety, the explosion safety, and the structural integrity evaluation.
