Abstract

A SINGLE-DEGREE-OF-FREEDOM APPROACH IS USED TO MODEL STRUCTURAL RESPONSE TO SUPERIMPOSED AIRBLAST AND GROUND VIBRATION FROM CONVENTIONAL EXPLOSIONS. A METHOD IS USED WHEREBY THE FORCE APPLIED TO THE STRUCTURE BY THE AIRBLAST IS COMBINED WITH THE FORCE DUE TO THE GROUND MOTION INTO A SINGLE EXCITINGFORCE. THE USE OF FIELD DATA PERMITS COMPARISON OF MODEL RESPONSE TO ACTUAL MEASURED STRUCTURAL RESPONSE.
