Numerical Simulation of the Blast Resistance of SPUA Retrofitted CMU Masonry Walls

Through numerical simulation, the blast-resistant performance of spray polyurea elastomer (SPUA) retrofitted concrete masonry unit (CMU) masonry infill walls under far-range blast loading was studied. From an engineering perspective, the effects of boundary conditions and thickness of a SPUA layer o...
