Description
The objective for the proposed effort is to develop a robust, effective, and deterministic/stochastic means to characterize blast effects from cased explosives pertaining to computing responses of structural components. This also includes creation of appropriate engineering aids/software/algorithms for transforming these blast effects into structural loads suitable for incorporation into high-fidelity physics-based (HFPB) finite element models to compute the response and damage imparted to structural components by munitions. This is to be accomplished in a way that preserves the basic physics-based nature of such blast effects and the uncertainties inherent to this type of problem.
