.... Xiao, BEng, MEng & Scaled explosive tests have been conducted to investigate the response of steel®bre-reinforced concrete (SFRC) model structural elements. The structural elements were (a) rectangular panels, simply supported on two opposing shorter edges, (b) square panels, simply supported on all...
