Finite Element Blast, Explosion & Fire

Applications of blast and explosion simulation:

  • Explosion Modeling: Numerical simulation can be used to model the behavior of explosions in chemical and pharmaceutical plants.
  • Risk Assessment: Numerical simulation can be used to evaluate the risk of explosions in chemical and petrochemical plants.
  • Explosion Protection: Numerical simulation can be used to design and evaluate the effectiveness of explosion protection systems, such as explosion venting, explosion suppression, and explosion isolation.
  • Dust Explosions: Numerical simulation can be used to evaluate the risk of dust explosions in chemical and pharmaceutical plants. The simulations can predict the behavior of the dust particles during the explosion.

Blast, Explosion & Fire

OLTRION engineers simulate the Blast and Explosion with innovative CAE and virtual prototyping available in the non-linear structural codes LS-DYNA, Ansys Autodyn, and ABAQUS. OLTRION Engineers can simulate any type of Blast and Explosion such as air blast, Underwater explosion (UNDEX) and Fragmentation due to blast to survey structural integrity in High Rate Loading Condition. Some key aspects of these numerical simulation for blast, explosion, and fire include:

Material modeling: Accurately modeling the behavior of materials under extreme loading conditions is crucial for blast, explosion, and fire simulation. Advanced material …
