Numerical study of blast-resistant sandwich panels with rotational friction dampers

Blast-resistant structures are traditionally designed with solid materials of huge weight to resist blast loads. This not only increases the construction costs, but also undermines the operational performance. To overcome these problems, many researchers develop new designs with either new materials...
