A novel geofoam-geogrid composite for protecting buried pipelines against blast loads

This study investigates the performance of a novel geofoam-geogrid composite in mitigating the impact of surface and subsurface blasts on API-× 65 steel pipelines buried 2 m below ground level. A 3D nonlinear finite element method was employed to analyze the effects of blast char...
