Blast Mitigation in Composite Structures
Abstract
The Blast Mitigation in Composite Structures project is a co-development effort partnering with the U.S. Navy and India to explore and develop novel blast mitigation techniques for the protection of U.S. Navy vessels and U.S. Marine Corps vehicles. In FY 2020, modeling and simulation (M&S) was performed to evaluate and predict the response of novel composite structures when exposed to blast loading. Work continues in FY 2021 with FY 2020 funds to validate the response of numerous novel blast mitigating techniques through additional M&S and experimentation. In FY 2021, the project transitions to the U.S. Navy for further development.
