Download or read book Granular Materials Under Shock and Blast Loading written by Padmanabha Vivek and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-10-31 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume discusses the fundamental dynamic behaviour of granular materials, in particular cohesionless sand, when subjected to shock and blast wave loading. The contents of the book are mainly divided into three parts based on the type of loading imparted to the granular materials: Shock-wave loading (step pulse); Air-blast loading (Friedlander wave); Buried-blast loading. It provides a comprehensive review of the available testing methods, along with the necessary diagnostic measurements for material characterization, making it useful for researchers working in the area of blast protection and Impact engineering.
