Abstract
Dynamic loads such as blasts or ballistic impacts induce different fragmentation zones. A damage law is used to describe the fragmentation coupled with a Drucker-Prager model accounting for confined damage. Two limestones are characterised to simulate edge-on impacts that allow for the identification of the friction angle of the Drucker-Prager model to avoid complex triaxial tests.

What is OpenURL?

The OpenURL standard is a protocol for transmission of metadata describing the resource that you wish to access. An OpenURL link contains article metadata and directs it to the OpenURL server of your choice. The OpenURL server can provide access to the resource and also offer complementary services (specific search engine, export of references...). The OpenURL link can be generated by different means.
  • If your librarian has set up your subscription with an OpenURL resolver, OpenURL links appear automatically on the abstract pages.
  • You can define your own OpenURL resolver with your EDPS Account. In this case your choice will be given priority over that of your library.
  • You can use an add-on for your browser (Firefox or I.E.) to display OpenURL links on a page (see http://www.openly.com/openurlref/). You should disable this module if you wish to use the OpenURL server that you or your library have defined.
