Abstract:Existing experimental evidence shows that the propagation of explosive waves in the free fields of soils is remarkably affected by the degree of saturation. In the surrounding rocks of underground protective structures, the underground water is normally unavoidable, which is supposed to reduce the isolation efficiency of a passive antiblast barrier. To investigate the effect of water saturation on the stress wave attenuation ability of infilled joints, impact tests were carried out on artificial joints filled … Show more
