Numerical Analysis of High Explosive Explosion on Horizontal, Vertical and Spherical Pressure Vessels

Oil, gas and petrochemical facilities are strategic industry facilities, and their passive defense issues are of high priority in every country. Explosions due to sabotage or aerial bombardments are of the most important factors in considering issues related to passive defense in the abovementioned...
