3D finite element explicit analysis of simply supported slabs of varying thickness and steel bar diameter under different scaled distances of blast loadings

Key Points

To evaluate how varying slab thickness and steel bar diameter affect structural responses to blast loadings.
Conducted a 3D finite element analysis of simply supported slabs.
Varied thickness and steel bar diameter in simulation.
Applied different scaled distances for blast loadings.
Thicker slabs showed significantly lower stress responses under blast loading.
Increasing steel bar diameter enhanced structural integrity against closer blast distances.
Optimal thickness and bar size were identified for maximum blast resistance.
