Investigation of a high-volume fly ash-wood fiber material subjected to low-velocity impact and blast loads

Abstract

"The thesis document consists of two technical papers, compiling the results of the research done on a high-volume fly ash-wood fiber material. The two papers independently examine the relative impact resistance and blast resistance of the material, respectively. The objective of the study was to develop a composite material composed of the two recyclables and investigate its use as a sacrificial liner in a blast barrier application"--Abstract, page iv.
