Study on Dynamic Factors of Damped Beam Members Under Exponential Attenuation Loading

Blast loading is characterized as an impact loading with exponential attenuation, while damping serves as an intrinsic parameter that affects the vibration effect of beam members. The linear attenuation for simplified blast loading and undamped situation for beam members is often adopted by most scholars or codes for the calculation of dynamic factors. These assumptions that do not conform to the actual situation can lead to deviations in the results of the dynamic factor. In this study, the implicit solutions for the dynamic factors of both flexible and rigid beam members were derived by the exponential attenuation loading and damping of beam members. The dynamic response verification of an H-shaped steel beam blast test was completed using LS-DYNA software. The comparison calculation of the theoretical solutions of dynamic factors in this paper with the Chinese blast-resistant design code and finite element simulation was carried out. The results show that the dynamic factor will be higher when the blast loading is simplified to linear attenuation loading for undamped beams. The shape parameter of the exponential attenuation loading and the damping ratio of beam members both reduce the effect of the dynamic factor, with the damping ratio having a more significant effect.
