Effect of finite element formulation type on blast wall analysis subjected to explosive loading

This study suggests relevant finite element (FE) formulation types for the numerical simulations of a stainless steel offshore blast wall subjected to seven (7) blast loading scenarios. These structures are typically modelled by solid and shell finite elements considering the thicknesses of the stru...
