Synopsis:

Performance of concrete subjected to high (strain) velocity loading, such as blast, impact (objects, vehicles, etc.) or

penetration (projectiles). Blast wave propagation in (confined) space and in material in particular with respect to the

heterogeneity of material. Interaction of various extreme loadings, e.g. blast and fire. Principles of numerical modeling of

fast dynamic phenomena.
