The scope of this study extends to experimental tests of plates subjected to blast loads with the intention of measuring the velocity of fragments and the subsequent modelling of the plates. A comparison of the results of the numerical and experimental results must be undertaken. An energy balance of the fractured plates must be undertaken with the aim of determining the energy of tearing. 2014-07-31T11:17:48Z 2014-07-31T11:17:48Z 2000 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/5451 eng application/pdf Department of Mechanical Engineering Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment University of Cape Town |
