Abstract

The terrorist attacks, threats, accidents imposed protuberant danger conditions and odious aesthetic view of public, commercial structures. Thus the study of dynamic response of engineering structures subjected to blast load becomes an interesting area in engineering research communities. Structures under blast and impact loads usually under go large plastic deformations and consequent failure occurs. In designing of structures, the design process for blast impact resisting structures has become more imperative. In this paper, a comprehensive overview of structural response and its characteristics under blast load on the basis of experimental and numerical methods are succinctly reviewed. The current advances in this research area are focused and illustrated. The concept of blast wave and its critical structural responses are classified on the basis of different materials and safety of the structure. Majorly availed numerical and experimental methods were discussed in a wide range with incisive description. The dynamic parameters, such as impulse velocity, acceleration, and displacement of structure under blast load are delineated on the basis of existing numerical techniques and experimental analysis.
