A supporting steel frame on a concrete foundation was designed for testing a steel plate target against blast loading. A 1220 mm 2140 mm 10 mm steel plate was tested and subjected to the explosion of 50 kg of TNT (tri-nitro toluene) at a stand-off distance of 20 m. Data collected from the specimen included the strain and deflection of the steel plate. The test data were analyzed to evaluate the performance of the plate. The test results were compared with the results of Autodyn, which is a finite element method-based commercial software. The analytical results showed minor differences from the test results when the boundary conditions of the steel plate assumed that the upper and lower sides were fixed and the other sides were free. Keywords: blast loading; hydro code; steel plate; finite-element analysis; Autodyn. COMPORTEMENT DYNAMIQUE D UNE PLAQUE D ACIER EXPOSÉE AU SOUFFLE D UNE CHARGE EXPLOSIVE RÉSUMÉ Cet article présente les résultats d un test expérimental effectué sur la résistance d une plaque d acier au souffle d une charge explosive. On a conçu un cadre en acier supporté par une structure de béton pour évaluer le comportement d une plaque d acier soumise au souffle d une charge explosive. Elle a été soumise à une charge explosive de 50 kg of TNT (trinitrotoluène) à une distance de sécurité de 20 m. Les données recueillies du spécimen comportaient la déformation et la flexion de la plaque d acier. Ces données furent analysées pour évaluer la performance de la plaque.

2 1. INTRODUCTION When a blast occurs, immediate damage is caused to structural members. This can lead to the loss of lives and result in secondary damage caused by progressive collapse and fragment accidents over a short period of time. When performing experiments on blast loading, there can be problems related to the safety of the experimental processes and/or related to the cost because of the large expense associated with these experiments. As such, because there are limited experimental environments that can be used for blast loading, few experimental models have been used, and only a small amount of experimental data has been obtained. In this study, an experiment was performed and the simulation results were examined by comparing the simulated and experimental results in an attempt to increase the reliability of the simulation. Ngo et al. [1] conducted an experiment in which equivalent explosives containing 6 ton of TNT were detonated at a stand-off distance of 30 to 40 m to demonstrate the behavior of ultra-high-strength pre-stressed concrete panels. Through this experiment, it was determined that the pre-stressed panels exhibited excellent blast resistance and that the damage level varied according to the thickness of the specimens. Concrete structures that were affected by blasts and impact loading were also analyzed by finite element analysis for verifying experimental results. Carriere et al. [2] examined the changes in the resistance capacity of concrete columns affected by blast loading; for this purpose, they applied steel polymer reinforcements to the concrete structure test samples. By analyzing the experimental and simulation results, they confirmed that the concrete column that was strengthened by the steel polymer reinforcement showed better resistance performance compared to typical concrete columns. In an experiment performed by Jacob et al. [3], mild steel plates were completely fixed with stand-off distances of 13 to 300 mm, and the degree of damage was examined. In this study, 50 kg of TNT was detonated at a stand-off distance of 20 m and a height of 1 m above the ground. Then, the incident pressure that was measured during the experiment was compared with the results obtained by modeling the explosion pressure simulated by Autodyn (version 15.0). The central displacement and the central and horizontal strains were also measured. The experimental results were compared with the simulation results obtained from Autodyn in order to validate the simulation method that was used in this study. 2. BLAST LOADING 2.1. The Material Model Explosive and air Autodyn expresses air with an equation of state using an ideal gas and the energy-related pressure, as shown in Eq. (1). In this equation, γ is a constant, ρ is the density of air, and e is the specific internal energy. These values are set as 14, kg/m 3, and kj/kg, respectively. P = (γ 1)ρ. (1) Also, the explosive is represented by the Jones Wilkins Lee (JWL) [4] physical property algorithm; the JWL equation of state is shown in Eq. (2). The JWL algorithm is defined based on data of constants obtained from an experiment. η = ρ/ρ 0, where ρ 0 is the reference density, and A, B, R 1, R 2, and ω are constants determined by dynamic experiments. P = A ( 1 ωη R 1 ) ( e R1/η + B 1 ωη ) e R2/η + ωρe. (2) R Steel plate The Johnson Cook model was utilized for modeling the steel plates; this model is appropriate for materials influenced by high strain, strain speed, and temperature. [5] The yield stress Y of this model is defined 576 Transactions of the Canadian Society for Mechanical Engineering, Vol. 40, No. 4, 2016

Numerical Model [ Y = [A + BεP] n 1 +C ln ε ] P [1 TH m ]. (3) ε 0 Simulation was performed by directly applying the blast loading as a piecewise stress to a 3D simulation model. In this simulation, steel plates were modeled using a Lagrange solver. In addition, fixed conditions were applied to the top and bottom sides of the steel plate. The size of the element was 61 mm 42.8 mm 2.5 mm. 3. EXPERIMENT 3.1. Material Properties The material properties of the steel plate are summarized in Table 1. The average yield strength and modulus of elasticity of the steel plate were measured to be and MPa, respectively. Therefore, the standard values of Steel 4340, which are provided in the properties library of Autodyn, were applied to the simulation. The properties for this material are as follows: the density is 7.85 g/cm 3, the bulk modulus is 159 GPa, the shear modulus is 81.8 GPa, the reference temperature is 300 K, and the specific heat is 477 J/kg K. Additionally, the yield strength of the material model was set to be MPa same as the yield strength of the steel plate in this experiment.

The concrete foundation was placed on the ground to prevent the frame from being pushed away by the explosion pressure. Both the top and bottom sides of the specimen were fixed by high strength bolts at an interval of 150 mm. The dimensions of the concrete foundation were 4000 mm 4000 mm 200 mm, and its average measured compressive strength was 35 MPa. Rebars with a diameter of 16 mm were also placed at intervals of 150 mm, both horizontally and vertically, as flexural reinforcements. Figure 2 shows the front view of the specimen installed for the test. Figure 3 shows the detonation of 50 kg of TNT at a stand-off distance of 20 m.

The specimen was located 20 m away from the detonation point. Incident pressure sensor IP_1500 mm, IP_2000 mm, and IP_2500 mm, which are depicted in Fig. 3, indicate the locations of the sensors used to measure the incident pressure at three different stand-off distances. Figure 4 shows the location of the strain gauges attached to the steel plate. The notations which identify each result (both experimental and analytical) are shown in Fig COMPARISON BETWEEN EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS AND ANALYTICAL PREDICTIONS 4.1. Explosion Pressure In terms of the explosion pressure, the incident pressures measured in the experiment were compared with those simulated by Autodyn. This was done in order to verify the simulation method used in this study. Figure 6 shows the actual explosion of 50 kg of TNT in the test field. In the 2D environment of Autodyn, the entire air size was modeled to be mm mm, and the mesh size was set to be 25 mm; thus, there are 400 elements 1200 elements = elements used to form the air. Figure 7 shows the blast loading modeled in the 2D environment of Autodyn. Boundary conditions were not applied to the lower y-axis (x = 0) to consider the surface blast simulation, and flow-out conditions were applied to the other air boundaries to prevent reflection. The experimental and simulated results for the maximum incident pressure at three different stand-off distances were compared. The simulation results were smaller than the experimental results by approximately Transactions of the Canadian Society for Mechanical Engineering, Vol. 40, No. 4,

As the stand-off distance increased, the difference between the experimental and simulated results decreased. Additionally, the arrival times of the incident pressure obtained from the experimental and simulated results were very similar, with a difference of approximately 0.4 to 2.9%. The main purpose of the predicting pressure was to set the sensing range of the pressure gauge before testing. The pressure difference between the field test and analysis results comes from the ground conditions, TNT shape, and sensor direction change. The measured pressure history was used to analyze the plate behavior.

The simulated strains of S Evaluation of the Displacement The experimental and simulation results on the central displacement of the steel plate were compared. The explosion pressure reached the specimen after approximately 33 ms at a stand-off distance of 20 m. The maximum displacement of S1 was measured to be mm after approximately 51 ms. Alternatively, the maximum displacement simulated in Autodyn was mm at 44 ms, showing a difference of 6.7% from the maximum displacement of S1 in the experiment Strain of S1 The horizontal strains were measured at the center of S1. Figure 8 presents the strains in S1 that were derived via simulation, indicating that the strains at gauges G1, G2, and G3 were similar. The simulation results also showed that the strains of the three gauges were very similar in the horizontal direction. Figure 9 presents the experimental and simulation strain results. The maximum simulated strain was The experimental strain of G3 was , showing a difference of approximately 10% from the simulated strain. The maximum strains were found to be (experimental) and (simulation). Given that the strain values derived from both experiments and simulations did not reach the yield strain value, it was confirmed that the steel plate maintained elastic behavior. The strains obtained experimentally and from simulation are summarized in Table 3. Transactions of the Canadian Society for Mechanical Engineering, Vol. 40, No. 4,

CONCLUSIONS In this study, a blast experiment was performed and compared with simulation results in order to examine the validity of the simulation method. According to stand-off distances of 15, 20, and 25 m, the incident pressure indicated that the simulation values were less than the experimental values by approximately 23, 17, and 16%, respectively. The arrival time of the explosion pressure was very similar in both results, showing differences of approximately 2.9, 0.4, and 1.7% for stand-off distances of 15, 20, and 25 m, respectively. The LVDT was installed at the center of the steel plate to measure the maximum displacement, which was found to be mm in the specimen. In the simulation by Autodyn, the maximum displacement was found to be mm, which was smaller than the experimental value by 2.29 mm. The strain measured in the experiment indicated that G3 of S1 showed the greatest strain (0.0010) among all of the strain gauges, while a strain of was the biggest value in the simulation result. The yield strain of the steel plate used in this experiment was ; because neither the experimental nor simulated strain values reached the yield strain, the steel plate would maintain elastic behavior.
