Short Course on Impact and Blast Dynamics on September 02-04, 2025 in Southampton, United Kingdom

The WIT Short Course on Impact and Blast Dynamics is designed to equip professional engineers, researchers and post-graduate students with the knowledge, tools and methods to analyse and better understand problems associated with large dynamic loads produced by a variety of sources, typically structural impact and explosions. The main aims of the course are to introduce the fundamentals of impact and blast dynamics, concepts, principles and simplified methods of design and analysis. This course will also cover introductory techniques and design approaches for impact- and blast-resistant structures.

The course will cover dynamic material behaviour, the response of structures to impulsive loads, and their relevance of these in real-life applications. We will make extensive use of case-studies and practical design examples, applied to structural crashworthiness, armour and protection systems, explosion mitigation, and design for safety throughout the civil, mechanical, nuclear, transportation and space industries. Hands-on sessions will give participants an opportunity to solve real-life problems using the analysis methods and tools delivered in the course.
