Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A method of analysis for buried arches with footings was developed to predict their response to a nuclear airblast overpressure. The method of analysis was formulated by considering the arch ring as a discrete model consisting of a finite number of nodes (flexible joints) connected by rigid bars initially of equal length. The results of laboratory and field tests on 1/4.5- and 1/2-scale models, respectively, of an arch structure are compared with predictions made using the analysis. Arch internal loads, footing motions, and free-field motions are compared with those predicted by the analysis and compare favorably. The analytical technique was used to predict the response of the prototype structure to a 140-psi air overpressure loading resulting from the detonation of 10-kt, 100-kt, and 1-Mt weapons, to a 100-psi air overpressure for a 1-Mt weapon, and to the Operation Prairie Flat (500-ton TNT) 140-psi overpressure and the predicted response was compared with that assumed in designing the structure. The method of analysis developed is recommended whenever a significant cost savings can be realized because a number of structures are to be constructed or when local soil conditions make design by cruder methods uncertain.

This book was released on 1961 with total page 486 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A study was made of the effectiveness of the surrounding soil in restraining the lateral movement of shallow-buried arches subjected to blast overpres ures from a nuclear explosion. The theory is developed for parabolic arches with circular or barrel arches included as a special case. It can be pplied equally well to arches oriented with their longitudinal axes perpendicular to or parallel to the direction of travel of the blast wave. The arch is considered to be buried near the surface of a semi-infinite soil mass. The depth of cover over the crown is limited to one-half of the arch span. The twohinged rather than the fixed arch is selected as representing more closely the shallow-buried rch structures used in full-scale nuclear tests to date. While these structures were not actually pinned at the arch abutments, their behavior under blast loading appears to resemble more closely the pinned th n the fixed case. he principal variables studied in the numerical examples include: (1) depth of cover, (2) overpressure loading, (3) arch material, and (4) arch span.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of Project 3.2 was to evaluate the effect of a 500-ton, TNT, surface burst on small, buried, reinforced concrete arch structures. These structures were of such size that they could be tested in laboratory nuclear simulation devices. Nine structures were tested. Three 30-inch-diameter structures with a 4-inch-thick section buried in dry sand to a depth equal to one-fourth the diameter of the arch were located at the 100-, 200-, and 300-psi predicted ground-surface air overpressure levels. Based upon conventional design theory these structures which had tied-independent footings were predicted to fail at overpressures above 200 psi and to move vertically 1 inch. Six semicircular, 12-inch-diameter, unreinforced concrete arch structures with solid base slabs were designed for and placed at the 150-psi predicted ground-surface air overpressure level. Three structures were placed in dry dense sand and three in saturated sand. The three 30-inch structures were subjected to actual air overpressures of 105, 160, and 320 psi and were damaged only slightly. The structure at the greatest range appeared to have suffered greater flexural damage than the closer-in structures. The 12-inch structures were damaged appreciably by ejecta. Generally, the structures responded in a similar manner. In all cases the blast side moved vertically downward, causing an overturning effect. It was concluded that the design techniques used are apparently conservative. (Author).

Book Synopsis Similarity Methods in Engineering Dynamics by : P.S. Westine
Download or read book Similarity Methods in Engineering Dynamics written by P.S. Westine and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2012-12-02 with total page 397 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here is the second revised and updated edition of probably the most practical sourcebook on similarity methods and modeling techniques available. Written by leading authorities who incorporate many of the latest advances in the field, this new work maps out techniques for modeling as well as instrumentation and data analysis for an extremely wide array of problems in engineering dynamics. This practical reference uses experimental test data on various engineering problems demonstrating exactly how and why these similarity methods work. The problems involve spread of oil slicks, explosive cratering, car crashes, space vehicle heat exchange, explosive forming, and more. The spectrum of topics covered and number of examples are far greater than in other texts. Of particular importance are the dissimilar material modeling techniques which bring new versatility and freedom to the modeler in structural dynamics. The book also contains a clear, in-depth discussion of the theory underlying modeling and includes alternate methods for developing model laws. The work will undoubtedly prove invaluable to every professional involved in testing or design of dynamic experiments.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of the study was to investigate and verify model-to-prototype scaling relations for blast loaded buried arches that respond both elastically and inelastically. Four geometrically similar, semicircular aluminum alloy arches with 4-, 8-, 12-, and 36-inch diameters were buried in dense dry sand and subjected to air-blast-induced loads on the surface. The tests were conducted at the Large Blast Load Generator located at the U.S. Army Engineer Waterways Experiment Station. The results of two series of tests, each consisting of 3 repeated shots, ranging from 70 to 300 psi, are presented. Within the range of parameters investigated, the scaling of the dependent variables were adequately verified. These variables included acceleration, velocity, displacement, thrust, and bending moment. (Author).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a part of this program, a series of laboratory model and prototype structures was tested dynamically in the Blast Load Generator facility located at WES to evaluate the use of scale-model tests in predicting the elastic response of a laboratory-size prototype structure to dynamic loads. Presented in this paper are the results of tests of three metal arch structures having diameters of 8, 16, and 24 in., respectively, placed at various depths of burial in dry sand and subjected to ground surface overpressures ranging from 57 to 196 psi.
