• A Shock Tube Used to Study the Dynamic Response of Blast-Loaded Plates 

      Aune, Vegard; Casadei, Folco; Valsamos, Georgios; Langseth, Magnus; Børvik, Tore (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      This study aims to a better understanding of the performance of a shock tube used to produce blast loading in controlled laboratory environments. Special focus is placed on the influence of the diaphragm failure process ...
    • Blast Loading of Concrete Pipes Using C-4 Charges 

      Kristoffersen, Martin; Hauge, Knut Ove; Børvik, Tore (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      The E39 coastal highway route in Norway is envisioned a future without ferries. A submerged floating tunnel built in concrete has been suggested as a means of crossing wide and deep fjords. Blast loading against this type ...
    • On the Material Characterization of an Aluminium Alloy Using Different Specimens and Identification Methods 

      Thomesen, Susanne; Hopperstad, Odd Sture; Børvik, Tore (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      The validity of material properties obtained from uniaxial tension tests using different specimen types and measurement techniques is investigated in this paper. Four different specimen geometries were tested, including ...
    • Quasi-Static and Dynamic Testing of Annealed Float Glass 

      Osnes, Karoline; Hopperstad, Odd Sture; Børvik, Tore (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      Three different experimental set-ups were employed in the investigation of the fracture strength of annealed float glass. These included four-point bending tests on three different specimen sizes, and quasi-static and ...
