An explosion from a specific source can generate high pressure, causing damage to structures and people in and around them. For the design of protective structures, although explosion overpressure is considered the main loading parameter, parts are only considered using standard design procedures, excluding special installations. Properties of the explosive, such as molecular structure, shape, dimensional properties, and the physical state of the charge, determine the results in a high-grade or low-grade explosion. In this context, it is very important to determine the explosion behaviors of the structures and to take precautions against these behaviors. Especially structures in areas with high explosion risk should be prepared for blast loads. In this study, the behavior of non-anchored blast resistant modular buildings was investigated. In the study, analyzes were carried out for cases where modular buildings were first positioned on a reinforced concrete surface and then directly on the ground. For these two cases, the behavior of the modular structure placed on the reinforced concrete floor against burst loads was evaluated with Stribeck curves. The behavior of the modular building placed directly on the ground is examined with the Pais and Kausel equations, which consider the structure-ground interaction. In the study, head and neck injuries were examined by placing test dummies to examine human injury behavior in modular buildings exposed to blast loads. Obtained results were compared with field tests. In both cases, results close to field tests were obtained. Thus, it was concluded that Stribeck curves and Pais Kausel equations can reflect the behavior of modular buildings subjected to blast loads. It was also seen at the end of the study that the human injury criteria were met. The results of the study are explained with their justifications.

Due to certain geological characteristics (high thickness, rocky properties), some underground coal mines require the use of explosives. This paper explores the effects of fragmentation of different decks detonated simultaneously in a single borehole with the use of numerical analysis. ANSYS/LS-DYNA code was used for the implementation of the models. The models include an erosion criterion to simulate the cracks generated by the explosion. As expected, the near-borehole area was damaged by compression stresses, while far zones and the free surface of the boundary were subjected to tensile damage. With the increase of the number of decks in the borehole, different changes in the fracture pattern were observed, and the superposition effects of the stress wave became evident, affecting the fragmentation results. The superposition effect is more evident in close distances to the borehole, and its effect attenuates when the distance to the borehole increase.

The dust formation processes in novae are investigated with close attention to recent infrared observations. Using mainly the classical nucleation theory, we have calculated the time scales of dust formation and growth in the environments of novas. Those time scales roughly the typical observations. We have classified the dust-forming novae into three classes according to their explosion properties and the thermodynamic properties of dust grains. Oxygen grains form much later than carbon grains because of their thermodynamic properties. The effect of grain formation to the efficiency of stellar winds to drive the material outward is tested with newly obtained Planck mean values of dust grains.

A new effective model for calculation of the equivalent uniform blast load for non-uniform blast load such as close-in explosion of a one-way square and rectangle reinforced concrete slab is proposed in this paper. The model is then validated using single degree of freedom (SDOF) system with the experiments and blast tests for square slabs and rectangle slabs. Test results showed that the model is accurate in predicting the damage level on the tested RC slabs under the given explosive charge weight and stand-off distance especially for close-in blast load. The results are also compared with those obtained by conventional SDOF analysis and finite element (FE) analysis using solid elements. It is shown that the new model is more accurate than the conventional SDOF analysis and is running faster than the FE analysis.

증기운 폭발의 폭압을 예측하거나 위험성 분석을 위하여 다양한 폭압 산정법이 존재하지만 대표적으로 경험적 방법인 TNT 등가량 환산법과 멀티에너지법을 주로 사용한다. 멀티에너지법은 환경적 요인을 고려한 폭발강도계수를 사용한다. 본 연구에서는 문헌 분석을 통하여 점화원 강도를 세분하고 강도분류를 확장하여 개선한 폭발강도계수 가이드라인을 제안하였다. 개선한 폭발강도계수 가이드라인의 합리성 검증과 기존 Kinsella 가이드라인과의 비교를 위하여 실제 추정 폭압과 대조가 가능한 4가지의 증기운 폭발 사례를 적용하였다. 결과적으로 기존 Kinsella 가이드라인은 실제 추정 폭압에 비하여 광범위하거나 부정확한 폭압 산정 결과를 나타내는 것으로 확인하였다. 반면, 개선한 폭발강도계수 가이드라인은 명확한 점화원의 강도 선정이 가능하고 분류의 확장을 통하여 더욱 세분화된 계수 값의 선정이 가능함에 따라 실제 사례와 비교적 유사한 폭압 산정이 가능하다.

This paper presents a development of empirical evaluations, which can be used to evaluate the damage of fiber-reinforced concrete composites (FRC) wall subjected to close-in blast loads. For this development, a combined application of numerical simulation and machine learning approaches are employed. First, finite element modeling of FRC wall under blast loading is developed and verified using experimental data. Numerical analyses are then carried out to investigate the dynamic behavior of the FRC wall under blast loading. In addition, a data set of 384 samples on the damage of FRC wall due to blast loads is then produced in order to develop machine learning models. Second, three robust machine learning models of Random Forest (RF), Support Vector Machine (SVM), and Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) are employed to propose empirical evaluations for predicting the damage of FRC wall. The proposed empirical evaluations are very useful for practical evaluation and design of FRC wall subjected to blast loads.

본 논문은 명시적 유한요소 해석을 이용하여 군함이나 수상함 아래의 수중에서 어뢰가 폭발할 때의 파편들의 거동을 조사하기 위하여 작성되었다. 본 연구에서는 LS-DYNA에서 라그랑주-오일러 (ALE) 접근법이라 불리는 유체-구조물 상호작용(FSI) 기법을 적용하여 어뢰파편과 선체의 응답을 관찰하였다. 오일러 모델은 공기, 물, 폭약으로 구성되며, 라그랑주 모델은 파편과 선체로 이루어져 있다. 본 모델링의 핵심은 최악파편이 어뢰로부터 가까운 곳(4.5 m)에 위치한 선체에 파공을 일으킬 수 있는지 여부를 파악하는 데 있다. 시뮬레이션은 별도의 두 단계로 수행되었다. 첫 번째의 예비해석에서는 팽창하는 어뢰의 외피가 찢어지는 데 폭약에너지의 30%가 소모된다는 가정 하에 수중폭발 시의 파편속도에 대해 잘 알려져 있는 실험결과를 토대로 최악파편의 초기속도를 결정하였다. 두 번째의 총괄해석에서는 최악파편이 선체에 부딪치기 직전에 보일 것으로 예상되는 파편의 종단속도를 찾고자 하였다. 그 결과, 주어진 조건 하에서 최악파편의 초기속도는 매우 빠른 것으로 나타났다(400 및 1000 m/s). 하지만 충돌이 발생할 때의 파편과 선체 간의 속도차이는 불과 4 m/s 정도로 매우 작았다. 이 결과는 물에 의한 큰 항력의 영향도 있지만 선체에 부여한 비파괴 조건도 영향을 끼쳤을 것으로 보인다. 하지만 적어도 본 논문에서 가정한 해석조건 하에서는 최악파편의 느린 상대속도로 인하여 선체에 파공이 발생하기는 어려운 것으로 나타났다.

There is a possibility that electrical sparks may occur at discontinuities in metallic structures from distance of close to high power radio/radar transmitters. Voltage may be induced on these metallic structures by the radio-frequency transmitter. In this case, a person who comes into contact with these structure may be undergone a severe electrical shock. In this paper, assessment of the electrical shock and ignition hazards was investigated through experimental which are consisted radio transmitter and metallic loop-type structure in shield room. We measured that the induced voltage was highest at 61 MHz of transmission frequency, and confirmed the possibility of electric shock and explosion induced by a voltage or spark. But it is needed additional research where is opened site.

Close to high power radio/radar transmitters, there is a possibility that electrical sparks may occur at discontinuities in metallic structures. If these structures are in an area where flammable mixtures are present, there is a danger that fire or explosion may happen by these sparks. Voltage may be induced on these metallic structures by the radio-frequency transmitter. In this case, a person who comes into contact with these structure may be undergone a severe electrical shock. In this paper, assessment of the these hazards was investigated through experimental and evaluation for actual tower cranes near AM radio transmitters.
