报告题目：An Overview of Experiments on the Response of Structures to Blast Loading
报告时间：2013年5月13日（星期一）下午2:00
报告地点：爆炸科学与技术国家重点实验室计算与仿真中心（9号教学楼617房间）
报告人：Prof. Nurick (University of Cape Town, South Africa)

报告摘要:
　　Over the years, the response of structures to blast loading has included monolithic plates and stiffened plates subjected to both localised and uniform blast loads. Other structures include fibre metal laminates, sandwich structures and square tubes. This presentation will present an overview of the experimental and numerical results.

报告题目：Development of Techniques to Measure the Transient Behaviour of Composite Panels to Localised Blast Loading

报告摘要:
　　Recent hardware and software advances have enhanced experimental measurements in the quasi-static to low speed impact regime, so that full field transient strain measurement is the new standard for experimental-numerical validation. Extending this to blast loading has been attempted for far field loading, but not in the near field explosion case. This lecture will present a review of previous methods used to measure the response of structures to blast loading, and report on some recent developments in this area. The lecture will also show some experimental and numerical work on the response of fiber metal hybrid materials to blast loading to show the importance of transient measurements. Finally, some high speed camera footage of the response of fiber metal laminates to blast loading will be used to estimate the duration of response.
