This report presents an in-depth review of the current state of knowledge on hull slamming,
which is one of several types of slamming problems to be considered in the design and …

Abstract The Hydrodynamic Ram (HRAM) effect occurs when a high kinetic energy projectile
penetrates a fluid filled area, eg, a liquid filled tank. The projectile transfers its momentum …

The main function of a multi-layer protective structure of a combatant ship is to prevent the
inner cabins from being destroyed by anti-ship weapons. The damage effect of these …

Hydrodynamic ram (HRAM) is a phenomenon that occurs when a high-speed projectile
penetrates a fluid-filled tank, where the energy transferred to the liquid could result in a …

In this investigation, a series of experiments are performed to study the deformation and
failure of fluid-filled vessel subjected to high speed impact loading. The water-filled vessel …

To harness the mechanical properties of concave multicell structures under explosive
loading, a fluid filled concave multicell structure that combined the concave multicell pattern …

The design of fuel tanks with a reduced vulnerability with respect to hydrodynamic ram
pressure (HRAM) effects is of an increasing need in the Civil (eg the Concorde accident) …

In recent years, vulnerability against high-velocity impact loads has become an increasingly
critical issue in the design of composite aerospace structures. The effects of Hydrodynamic …

High-velocity impact on fluid-filled containers is a concern associated with the vulnerability
of aircraft fuel tanks due to hydrodynamic ram (HRAM). The present study compared the …

Industrial equipment storing hazardous substances can be the target of deliberate malicious
attacks causing escalation scenarios involving the release of flammable and/or toxic …
