Underground Structures Subjected to Various Blast Loading Scenarios: A Scoping Review
Abstract Underground structures are a major part of public and military infrastructure with national and strategic importance. Blast loading generated by intentional and accidental explosions can cause severe damage to their structural integrity. Any abrupt halt in their continuous functioning could result in drastic consequences. Understanding the effect of blast loading on underground structures becomes crucial in order to enhance their resistance against blast. This paper overviews the mechanics behind blast loading and its interaction with soil and underground structure while considering possible blast scenarios. And also phenomena associated with external and internal explosion such as cavitation, soil compaction, soil liquefaction, multiple reflection, quasi-static gas pressure phase and Mach stem formation are explained. Special attention has been given in elaborating various recent studies and development made in analysing soil-structure interaction during an event of explosion considering various factors. Major research gaps identified during the review, current challenges and future scope for research have been highlighted lastly. This review aims at providing a foundation to new researchers interested in exploring this field in addition to provide new perspective for future research work.
