AboutIAPS‐AUSThe International Association of Protective Structures (IAPS) wasformed in2010toaddressall therelevantaspectsof thesubjectofprotectivestructures in thebuilt environment, including: structuralmechanics,soilmechanics,trafficengineering,waterwaysaswellassafety studies and risk analysis in both research and practice. TheAustralian Chapter (IAPS‐AUS) was founded by Professor MarkStewart in June 2011 for the purpose of promoting research anddevelopment associated with Protective Structures in CivilEngineering in Australia. Primary objectives are: bringing expertstogether working in the field of protective structures in Australia,beingtheumbrellafordifferentactions,supportinganInternationalConference on Protective Structures (ICPS) to be held every twoyears,promotionofotherprofessionalactivities,andsupportingthepublications of the International Journal of Protective Structures(IJPS).

Energy Absorption of Auxetic Materials

University of Technology, Taiyuan 030024, China Summary
AuxeticmaterialswithnegativePoisson’s ratiopossess the fascinatingproperty of contracting laterally when compressed in the otherdirection, and expanding laterally when stretched longitudinally. Thisproperty fundamentally underpins the variations in the mechanicalperformances in suchmaterials.Thiswork systematicallyanalyses thepost‐yielding mechanical capabilities of the re‐entrant hexagonalhoneycombs under the x‐direction and y‐direction by considering thenonlinear behaviors of cell walls based on the force equilibriums,ranging from the case of rigid perfectly plastic material model to thematerialmodel involving strain hardening. Afterwards, the results areverifiedbyimplementingsomenumericalsimulations.Atlast,theinitialyieldingstressandplasticPoisson’sratiowillbediscussed.

Summary
DST Group has undertaken multiple experimental trails to betterunderstand the blast and fragment produced from Vehicle BorneImprovised Explosive Devices (VBIEDs) and how they differ whencompared to conventional munitions. In the latest series ofexperimental trials, work was undertaken to investigate thecontributionofthefragmentloadingtothedeflectionofanddamageofreinforcedconcretepanelsofmultiplethicknesses.Thiswasperformedusing a fragment projector that was designed to produce fragmentswhichwereconsideredtobeindicativeofthosefoundaroundaVBIEDevent. Fromtheseexperimentsitwasfoundthatthefragmentimpactshad a strong contribution towards the deflection of the panels. Itwasobservedthatthedifferenceinthetimeofarrivalofthefragmentsandtheprimary shock, in relation to the response rate of thepanel, hadasignificanteffectonthepeakdeflectionreachedbythepanels.

Summary
Whenassessingexplosionrisksofsuper‐largeoffshorestructuressuchas Floating Liquefied Natural Gas (FLNG) facilities, there are neitherdesign rules nor industry standards available as FLNG is a newtechnology.Meanwhile,alargeamountofComputationalFluidDynamic(CFD)calculationtimeisrequiredduetoitssuper‐largesizeandhighlycomplicated topside structures. A multi‐level explosion risk analysismethod (MLERA) is developedwhich divides thewhole structure intosubsectionsandappliesdetailedCFDcalculationsonlytotheareaswiththehighestlevelofpotentialriskssothatthecomputationaltimecanbereduced to a realistic and acceptable level. TheMLERA includes threelevels, which are qualitative risk screening, semi‐quantitative riskclassification,andquantitativeriskassessment.ACFDtoolcalledFLACSis used as a calculation tool for detailed risk quantification, and anALARP (as low as reasonably practical) method is selected as acalibration toolandused todetermine theacceptanceof theexplosionrisk.Meanwhile,sincethecurrentdesignstandardsfornormaloffshoreplatforms are not sufficient for super‐large structures, during the riskscreening and risk classificationprocesses, safety barriers are used asextrarisk indicators inadditiontothetraditionalones.Acasestudy isconductedbasedonacylindricalFLNGmodel,andtheresultofthecasestudyproves that theproposedMLERAmethod is able to savea largeamountofcomputationaltime.

Accidentalanddeliberate loadsoncivil andmilitary structures, locallyandinternationallyhaveclaimedlivesandcostgovernmentsbillionsofdollarsworldwide. Design solutions for land,maritime infrastructuresagainstblastloadscurrentlycomeattheexpenseofconsiderableweightgain, which incurs significant costs and compromises the structure’sresistance to other extreme loads. The key challenge is to develop alightweighthighperformanceprotectivestructurethatexhibitssuperiorstrength and toughness simultaneously, which are typically mutuallyexclusive in traditional engineering materials. Mimicking naturalstructures (such as turtle shells, pearl oysters, porcupine quills etc.),whichhaveoptimisedtheirarmouringsystemsovermillionsofyearsofevolution to counter predator attacks, could lead to efficientlylightweightengineeringstructureswithimprovedmechanicalresponsesto extreme loadings such as blast and impact. This research aim is todevelop a bio‐inspired multi‐functional lightweight composite panelsystem that can concentrate material into areas most needed underimpact loads, absorb andmitigate energy under blast, and provide ananchoring effect that prevents hazardous fragments from flying out ofthe system. The composite panel will be light, modular, scalable, andeasytoconstructanddisassemble;makingitunlikeanyothercompositesystemsusedinprotectiveengineeringapplications.

The ever increasing demand for high energy‐absorbing and hightoughness lightweight materials for impact and blast applications inautomotive, aeronautical and defence industry is posing a greatchallengeoninnovativedesignandmanufacturingtoaccommodatethecompetingpropertiesoflightweightononehand,andimpactandblastresistanceontheotherhand.Nacre,commonlyknownasthemother‐of‐pearl, is a biological material that exhibits outstanding mechanicalproperties due to its brick‐wall like hierarchical structure that spansfrom nano‐ to macro‐scales. Inspired by the hierarchical structure ofnacre, an aluminium alloy 7075 based composite featuring layerwaviness and cohesive interface is being developed and studiednumerically as high velocity impact and blast resistant material. Toinvestigate their ballistic and blast performance, a numerical study oftheproposednacre‐likecompositesmadeofthinaluminiumalloy7075tablets bonded with toughened epoxy resin is performed usingAbaqus/Explicit.Inthesimulations,theJohnson‐Cookmaterialmodelisused togetherwiththe Johnson‐Cook fracturecriteriontosimulatetheconstitutive response of the aluminium alloy 7075 tablets. The epoxymaterial is modelled using a user‐defined interface cohesive elementthat properly takes into account both compressive strength andtoughnessenhancementsundercompression.Asignificantperformanceimprovement is observed for the proposed nacre‐like aluminiumcomposite plate as compared to the same thickness bulk aluminiumplate,which can be explained by the hierarchical structure facilitatingbothlocalizedenergyabsorptionbydeformationoftheplateandmoreglobalizedenergyabsorptionbyinter‐layereddelaminationandfrictionunderbothimpactandblastloading.Currentlytheproposedaluminiumalloycompositeplatesarebeingfabricatedandtested.Theexperimentalresultsontheirballistictestingwillbereportedwhenavailable.

Summary
There has recently been a growing trend of replacing conventionalstructural elements by novel components to achieve more resilientinfrastructure. Owing to the recent benchmark study conducted atMonash University, it has been demonstrated that innovative hollowcorrugated columns exhibit significant enhanced performance understaticloadingscomparedtotheequivalentconventionalcolumns.Since,hitherto the dynamic behaviour of innovative corrugated columnssubjected to impact loadingshasnotbeen investigated, thus the latestresearchactivitiesonthefundamentalbehaviorofcorrugatedcolumnsunderlateralimpactloadingarepresented.Acorrugatedcolumnisbuiltupoffourself‐strengthenedcorrugatedplatesweldedtogethertoforma box section, whilst as an alternative configuration, four ultra‐highstrength steel tubes could also be used at the apexes of a corrugatedsection. Three different types of corrugation profiles have beenconsidered to investigate the influence of geometric parameters ofcorrugationprofilesonthememberbehaviour.Thelarge‐scalesamplessitting in thedesignedfixturesasboundaryconditionsare laterallyhitbytheweightsdroppingfromspecificheightto inducedesiredlevelofimpact energy. The experimental recorded data including the residualfailuremodes,thetimehistoryoftheimpactforces,globaldeformationsandstrainsofcorrugatedcolumnswillbecomparedwiththoseobtainedfor an equivalent control specimen built from flat plates. Additionally,the developed finite element model for corrugated columns which isverifiedthroughexperimentresultsisbrieflyoutlined.
