Aluminum foam is a lightweight material with high energy absorption capacity. In this study A Nonlinear three-dimensional hydrocode numerical simulation was carried out using autodyn-3d, which is an extensive code dealing with explosion problems. In this simulation, a high explosive material (comp B) is blasted against several concrete panels. The model was first validated using experimental tests carried out by Chengqing and has shown good results. Several numerical tests were carried out to study two parameters that affect the deflection of reinforced concrete panels. The parameters included are the thickness of concrete target and the thickness of steel plate. The results showed that increasing the thickness of the steel plate has an insignificant effect on the deflection of the reinforced concrete target while increasing the thickness of the concrete panel has a significant effect on the deflection of the concrete target.

An experimental and theoretical investigation into the seismic performance of steel encased reinforced concrete bridge piles is described. Six test units were designed, constructed and tested
under cyclic lateral displacement-controlled loading. The units had
an outside diameter of 360 mm and a steel casing thickness of 5 mm. Variables included the axial load level, inclusion or exclusion of internal reinforcing cages, and the influence of the casing continuity at he critical flexural sections. Sound seismic performance was observed in all of the models and good agreement between predicted and observed ultimate behaviour was obtained.

With new discoveries and insights in atomic and optical physics, the field of spectroscopy is advancing to a new level with applications ranging from material science to astronomy. We here propose a theoretical description of a potential new phenomenon resulting from the extension of Compton's experiment on the scattering of high energy photons through atomic electrons. How the proposed phenomenon can be tested experimentally is discussed in the paper as well.
