Residual axial capacity of concrete-filled double-skin steel tube columns under close-in blast loading
Published 2022“…The results demonstrated good residual axial load-bearing performance of CFDST columns after subjected to close-in detonations of man-portable improvised explosive devices (MPIEDs). Based on the numerical analysis results, an empirical formula is derived to predict the residual axial load-bearing capacity of CFDST columns after experiencing close-in explosions. …”
