Funded Activity Summary

Development of novel viscoelastic sprayed material for the effective blast resistance of critical and resource infrastructure. This project aims to conduct theoretical, numerical and experimental investigations on the mechanism of surface sprayed viscoelastic materials for blast mitigation of structural members in critical and resource infrastructure. The project design is different from traditional designs and aims to achieve protection with a higher efficiency, in a flexible manner and at a lower cost. Therefore, it is worth exploring systemically the development of design methods which are not yet available. The project outcomes intend to be incorporated into design codes for the purposes of improving the civil infrastructure environment subjected to extreme events.
