Underwater explosions are inherently complex and unique physical phenomena markedly distinct from those occurring above the surface. This distinctiveness is primarily attributed to the relatively incompressible nature of water, which fundamentally alters the propagation and impact of shock waves. The study of underwater explosions is paramount in applications such as underwater demolitions for construction and salvage operations. These applications require a comprehensive understanding in order to mitigate the disturbances’ impact on marine structures and ecosystems. Studying underwater explosions and their mitigation encompasses various disciplines, including fluid mechanics, materials science and structural engineering. The work reviewed in this study contributes significantly to enhancing safety measures in marine structures by providing critical insights into the behaviour of structures under extreme conditions. This includes understanding the behaviour of gas bubbles formed by explosions, the transmission of shock waves through different media and the resultant forces exerted on structures submerged in water. Consequently, this review is meant to aid in designing robust and resilient marine systems capable of withstanding severe loading conditions caused by underwater explosions by providing key engineering considerations. The continuous evolution of this research area is essential for advancing maritime technology, ensuring the safety of undersea operations and protecting marine environments from the adverse effects of extreme subaqueous loadings.

The study of dynamic events such as impact and hydroelastic slamming is of great importance in determining the structural integrity of naval or maritime structures, particularly those made of composite materials. This topic has been investigated by numerous researchers using analytical, experimental, and numerical approaches. In this study, we propose using a hybrid numerical model combining smoothed-particle hydrodynamics (SPH) and the finite element method (FEM) to investigate the impact of external objects on floating laminates. The results show a good agreement with the available experimental data regarding the impact dynamic and some limitations in the damage determination.
