SUMMARY:Characterising explosive blast loading for structural engineering\
 , protection and blast injury sciences - Jack Denny\, Department of Engine
 ering\, University of Southampton
DTSTART:20190516T150000Z
DTEND:20190516T160000Z
UID:TALK120535@talks.cam.ac.uk
CONTACT:Stephen Walley
DESCRIPTION:In this seminar\, I will provide an overview of my blast engin
 eering research to date including an overview of my PhD research concernin
 g extreme\, ‘long-duration’ blast loading on structural steel columns 
 through novel full-scale experimental trials and advanced numerical modell
 ing. The unique challenges and importance of characterising and modelling 
 blast loading accurately will be explained within the contexts of structur
 al engineering and the broader blast injury and protection fields. Knowled
 ge gaps and priorities for future blast research (including blast loading 
 methodologies) will be presented as part of a current interdisciplinary pr
 oject at the University of Southampton to establish a novel evidence-base 
 and research network.
