| description | Concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) columns are widely used in engineering structures, and they have many different cross section types. Among these, normal solid sections and concrete-filled double-skin steel tubular sections are often used. Although many studies have been conducted on CFST columns with these two section types, no studies have been conducted on their damage assessment under blast loading. In this study, experimental analysis and a numerical simulation method were integrated to evaluate the responses and assess the damage of two concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) columns with different cross sections subjected to near-field blast loading. The results showed that for a scaled distance of 0.14 m/kg1/3, plastic bending deformation occurred on the surfaces of the two CFST columns facing the explosive. The antiexplosion performance of the normal solid-section (NSS) CFST column was better than that of the concrete-filled double-skin steel tubular (CFDST) column. The explosion centre was set at the same height as the middle of column, and the distributions of the peak pressure values of the two columns were similar: the peak pressures at the middle points of the columns were the greatest, and the peak pressures at the bottom were higher than those at the top. With the analysis of the duration of the positive pressure, the damage at the middle was the most severe when subjected to blast loading. Using pressure-impulse damage theory and the validated numerical simulations, two pressure-impulse damage evaluation curves for NSS and CFDST columns were established separately by analysing the experimental and simulation data. Finally, based on the two pressure-impulse damage evaluation curves, the two pressure-impulse damage criteria for these two different fixed-end CFST columns were defined based on the deflection of the surfaces facing the explosives. Furthermore, the mathematical formulae for the two different column types were established to generate pressure-impulse diagrams. With the established formulae, the damage of the CFST columns with these two cross section types can be evaluated. Damage to other similar CFST columns with different cross section types due to near-field blast loading can also be evaluated by this method. |
