: In this paper, 30 SFRC (Steel Fiber Reinforced Concrete) spindle specimens with different steel ﬁber contents were subjected to static loading tests and blast wave loading tests on spindle specimens with different steel ﬁber contents using a self-developed planar blast wave loading device (a new type of patent recognized by the State Intellectual Property Rights). The dynamic response, impact performance and damage mode of Steel Fiber Reinforced Concrete under blast loading were investigated. The experimental results show that with the increase of steel ﬁber content (within 2%), the strength of the Steel Fiber Reinforced Concrete increases slightly. The ﬂatter the falling section of the stress-strain curve, the better the energy absorption effect. With the increase of explosive equivalent(24 g RDX and 36 g RDX), the more obvious the strain rate effect, the greater the increase of peak stress, and the SFRC with 2% steel ﬁber content has the best energy absorption effect. Furthermore, the dynamic response of SFRC spindle specimens was numerically simulated using the improved K&C material model with LS-DYNA explicit ﬁnite element dynamic analysis software. The results verify the validity and reliability of the improved K&C material model.


Introduction
As the world's population continues to grow and the desire for scarce resources increases, the risk of large-scale, high-precision, high-powered warfare continues to rise!The power of unmanned aerial devices for precise positioning poses a serious challenge to protective engineering in warfare.The optimization of blast-resistant protective engineering for warfare purposes has received much attention.With the accelerating pace of industrial development, SFRC has gained the attention of scholars and experts in the fields of construction (bridge engineering, airport and port engineering), defense and military as well as academic research because of its high crack resistance, good elongation, excellent energy dissipation and energy absorption, and good impact resistance [1][2][3].
Many scholars have added different fibers to concrete for reinforcement.They usually include glass fibers [4,5], organic fibers [6,7], carbon fibers [8][9][10], synthetic fibers [11] and steel fibers [12][13][14][15][16], etc.And some scholars have conducted experimental and numerical simulations to compare glass/epoxy composite glass panels [17].Zhao [18] and Zhang [19] proposed several different types of composite shields that can improve explosion resistance while maintaining light weight, and experimental and theoretical analyses were carried out.Steel fiber is one of the most preferred materials due to its wide availability and relative cheapness and better engineering economic value.Some studies have shown that the compressive strength as well as the modulus of elasticity of concrete is less affected by the steel fiber content, but it greatly enhances the performance of concrete after cracking with good resistance to blast local dislodgement [20][21][22].
As early as the 1940s, scholars from various countries, represented by the US and the USSR, successively mixed steel fiber of different shapes and proportions into plain concrete and studied its crack resistance and wear resistance.In the later part of the last century, in Asia, Europe and the United States, SFRC has been used in airport projects and highway pavement projects [22][23][24].SFRC exhibited greater strength in direct tensile experiments [25], and scholars from various countries have further investigated the effect of different types of steel fibers and different contents on SFRC beams [26][27][28].Yang [29] et al. conducted compression and splitting tensile tests on steel fiber concrete slabs and investigated the dynamic response and damage modes of concrete slabs by explosion tests.At present, research on steel fiber high performance concrete under low and medium strain rate loading has been fruitful [30][31][32].Yehya et al. [33] used ABAQUS to model and validate the experimental results for several beams under blast conditions; Jacques E et al. [34] studied lapped reinforced concrete beams at high strain rates.Li et al. [35] further used two-dimensional finite element individuals to predict the blast response of the beam and compared it with the test.While research on Steel Fiber Reinforced Concrete under blast impact is limited in terms of data and experiments, and, due to the lack of design guidelines, there is a lack of in-depth understanding of the basic characteristics of Steel Fiber Reinforced Concrete under blast impact.The intrinsic structure of Steel Fiber Reinforced Concrete at high strain rates is also not well developed.Due to the difficulty of controlled blast testing, scholars have remained at the stage of single experimental studies or numerical simulations [36], lacking specific comparative analyses for verification.
In this paper, an electro-hydraulic servo testing machine was used to carry out uniaxial compressive static load tests.The planar blast wave loading system exploded SFRC spindle specimens with strength C40 and steel fiber content (Vf) of 0, 0.5%, 1%, 1.5% and 2% at the blast load.The dynamic response, impact properties and damage characteristics were systematically investigated using a combination of experimental analysis and AN-SYS/LS-DYNA numerical simulations [37] based on a modified K&C material model [38][39][40].The mechanical characteristic curves and damage characteristics were obtained experimentally.This paper is to provide valuable research methods and data for the application of SFRC blast-resistant structures in academic research fields and engineering fields, and also provide a basis for the further research.

Electro-hydraulic servo testing machine: servo system is automatic control system which use a mechanical position or angle as the control range.In the electro-hydraulic servo pressure testing machine, the servo control system is used to control the piston movement of the loading cylinder position and movement speed.Electro-hydraulic servo test system can complete the conventional single-axis compression test, three-axis compression test, etc.In the quasi-static uniaxial compression test, three specimens of different steel fiber content were used in each group.The uniaxial compression test allows the compressive strength and the damage pattern of the SFRC specimens to be obtained directly, using an electro-hydraulic servo tester to obtain the time course of the pressure on the SFRC axis.

Plane Blast Wave Experimental Device and Principle
A self-developed planar blast wave loading device [41] (a new type of patent recognized by the State Intellectual Property Rights) as shown in Figure 2, was used to perform blast shock wave loading tests on the experimentally designed spindle specimens.The principle is: to perform multi-point simultaneous detonation through tandem detonation simultaneously detonating reticulated detonating cord; to obtain a plane blast wave conditioned by a wave guide tube; and after a certain distance through the impact plate (upper ball hinge) on the specimen loading which can achieve uniform symmetric loading effect, and fully and truly reflect the actual application of the specimen by high-speed impact loading in the high strain rate state, thus, can effectively test the damage characteristics and mechanical properties of concrete materials under high strain rate loading.
The advantage of this is that it overcomes the limitations on specimen size and length in the Hopkinson experiment [42] favoured by most authors.In SHPB (Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar), one-dimensional stress waves are used to cause concrete to be damaged under high strain rate conditions.If the diameter of the rod is too large, the spatial

Introduction to LS-DYNA Algorithm
Finite unit method, finite volume method and finite difference method have been developed for medium unit.In engineering, for discontinuous media such as concrete and fractured rocks, the algorithms developed discrete element method, finite block method, and numerical manifold method.At this stage, the methods used for analysis using coordinate systems are mainly arbitrary Lagrangian method, Eulerian method (ALE) and coupled Lagrangian and Eulerian methods (CLE), as well as the smooth mass dynamics method (SPH), which has been widely used in the field of explosion analysis in recent years.The above methods allow simpler implementation of complex intrinsic behavior and more accurate material damage calculations for materials under explosive loading.

K&C Material Model for Dynamic Damage of LS-DYNA Concrete
K&C material model [43][44][45][46][47][48]: the establishment of: Malvar et al. extracted independent failure yield surfaces based on the Pseudo-Tensor model (*MAT_16), modified the cutoff pressure values, established three fixed failure strength surfaces, modified the shear modulus and defined the relationship between the triaxial tensile to compressive ratio and pressure.
Yin, Huawei [49] et al. improved the Malvar model.They improved the model with three fixed failure strength surfaces, modified the damage mechanism, which into the SFRC's dynamic enhancement factor model.Due to the dynamic generation of the original K&C material model since, the strength surface parameters of ordinary concrete were used.In the improved model, the strength surface parameters applicable to high-strength, highly energy-absorbing concrete such as SFRC were used based on 96 sets of SFRC triaxial compression experimental data, and this measure greatly improved the ability of the model to express the toughness, ductility, and energy absorption of high-strength, highly energyabsorbing concrete such as SFRC.The ability to express the mechanical behavior of the strain-softening section is improved.

Improvement of Maximum Strength Surface Parameters
Malvar defined three independent failure strength surfaces using compression meridians with a maximum strength surface ∆σ m , an initial yield strength surface ∆σ y , and the residual strength surface ∆σ r ∆σ m = a 0 + p a 1 + a 2 p (1) where: a i , a iy , a if (i = 0,1,2), a set of parameters obtained from the triaxial compression test of concrete; hydrostatic pressure p = (σ 1 + σ 2 + σ 3 )/3, where σ 1 , σ 2 , σ 3 are the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd principal stresses, respectively; failure strength surface deflection stress: It was found that the volume fraction of steel fibers has a large effect on the triaxial compression strength of SFRC.Therefore, based on the original maximum strength surface, Yin et al. [49] used the least two-layer method to establish a new parametric model of the maximum strength surface based on a large amount of experimental data.
The maximum strength surface parameters a 0 , a 1 , and a 2 of SFRC are given in the following equation

. Modified Damage Mechanisms
The addition of steel fibers changes the damage evolution mechanism of the original concrete.In order to better express the excellent ductility, toughness and high energy absorption capacity of SFRC, to improve the defect of too fast damage evolution of the original model, and to accurately express the process of damage evolution due to plastic shear strain and plastic volume strain, the damage evolution function is modified as follows.
where α is the constant of the control strain hardening section, α c and α d are the constants of control the strain softening section, and λ m is the peak effective plastic strain, λ is the effective plastic strain.

The effective plastic strain accumulation function in the K&C material model is as follows [50]: where: ε p is the effective plastic strain increment; γ f is the strain rate enhancement factor; f t is the uniaxial tensile strength; b 1 and b 2 are the mechanical behaviors involved in controlling the uniaxial compression and tensile softening sections, respectively.

Improved SFRC Dynamic Enhancement Factor Model
In this study, based on the CEB-FIP [50] compressive dynamic strengthening factor model, the SFRC compressive dynamic strengthening factor (CDIF) model was improved by introducing the fiber volume fraction factor γ V f and modifying the transition strain rate, and conducting least-squares linear regression analysis for 122 experimental data sets.(CDIF) model with the following functional relationship equation.

Air Material Model
In the simulation, the air domain material model of the blast chamber in the waveguide in the simulation uses *MAT_NULL, coupling *EOS_LINEAR_POLYNOMIAL equation of state.This equation of state is used to define a fluid material model such as air, and requires input parameters including: density, modulus of elasticity, Poisson's ratio, pressure cutoff (less than 0.0), dynamic viscosity coefficient, relative volume for dilatational erosion process (ignored by 0), and relative volume for compressive erosion process (ignored by 0).The coefficients C 0 to C 6 of the equation of state, the initial internal energy and initial relative volume, and the air material model parameters are shown in Table 8 below.Due to the low controllability of the explosion test, through multiple numerical simulations, the explosive equivalent required for the specimen to yield under the explosion load was gradually approached, and after several adjustments, the steel fiber content was 0 under the action of 31.99 g and 47.99 g TNT, respectively.0%, 0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, 2% SFRC energy time history curve, stress time history curve, (as shown in Figure 10), the numerical simulation of SFRC specimen under plane blast wave loading.Due to the low controllability of the explosion test, through multiple numerical simulations, the explosive equivalent required for the specimen to yield under the explosion load was gradually approached, and after several adjustments, the steel fiber content was 0 under the action of 31.99 g and 47.99 g TNT, respectively.0%, 0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, 2% SFRC energy time history curve, stress time history curve, (as shown in Figure 10), the numerical simulation of SFRC specimen under plane blast wave loading.

Through the collation of experimental data; through the quasi-static experimental, numerical simulation results of comparative analysis, steel fiber concrete has a significant strain rate effect.This phenomenon can be explained by the fact that the main cause of concrete damage is the appearance and development of cracks.As the blast impact velocity increases, the number of cracks increases and the appearance of cracks requires a large

Results and Discussion
Through the collation of experimental data; through the quasi-static experimental, numerical simulation results of comparative analysis, steel fiber concrete has a significant strain rate effect.This phenomenon can be explained by the fact that the main cause of concrete damage is the appearance and development of cracks.As the blast impact velocity increases, the number of cracks increases and the appearance of cracks requires a large amount of energy.Due to the extremely short duration of the blast impact load, the crack expansion rate is much smaller than the stress expansion rate.The concrete does not have enough time to accumulate energy, so the energy can only be absorbed by increasing the stress.This leads to an increase in dynamic strength as the strain rate increases.
Through the quasi-static experiments in Table 2 and Figure 4, the research results show that under static loading, the mechanical properties of SFRC with the content of steel fibers are characterized: with the increase of fiber content, the compressive strength of SFRC increases, and the steel fiber content is 2% is about 33% higher than the steel fiber content of 0%.And this finding proves the study of Semsi et al. [40].
Combined with Tables 2 and 3 and Figures 4 and 7, the experiments were conducted under quasi-static loading, as well as explosive equivalent of 24 g RDX (approximately equal to 31.99 g TNT), 36 g RDX (approximately equal to 47.99 g TNT), and comparative analysis by plane blast wave loading; the results showed that the SFRC strain rate effect was obvious, and the dynamic enhancement factor under the blast load of 24 g RDX loading increased with The results showed that the SFRC strain rate effect was obvious, and the dynamic enhancement factor was stable from 0% to 2.0% with the steel fiber content of 24 g RDX loading at about 1.6.With the increase of explosive equivalent, the DIF value of SFRC increased with the increase of explosive equivalent (loading rate) from 0% to 2.0% and stabilized at about 2.4 with the steel fiber content at 36 g RDX.
Through a comprehensive analysis of the plane blast wave experimental data and LS-DYNA numerical analysis of the two data results, under the blast load, due to the blast impact time is very short, SFRC has more crack formation, so the steel fiber doping for the blast impact performance, and with the increasing amount of steel fiber doping, blast impact resistance enhanced; stress-strain curve in the Stress softening section (falling section) is more gentle, showing that SFRC has better toughness, ductility and more excellent energy absorption properties.
By analyzing the data from the blast side (sensor No. 1) and the support side (sensor No. 2) of the specimen in the plane blast wave experiment (shown in Figure 7), the data showed that the blast shock wave propagated in the specimen at a speed of about 0.02 ms; the stress peak on the support side of the specimen was reduced by about 10% compared with the blast side.
The experiments were conducted using a modified K&C material model and a comprehensive comparison between the experimental data of plane blast wave and the numerical analysis data of LS-DYNA.The experiments verify the validity of the numerical simulation results and further show that the improved K&C material model has better applicability, effectiveness and high reduction in the simulation of steel fiber concrete.In contrast to the prediction model proposed by Monjee K et al. [51], the use of conventional software simulation has better applicability and generality.
Obviously, we need to conduct more experimental studies on steel fiber concrete blast resistance test research in order to establish a large database for more in-depth quantitative analysis.Secondly, a large amount of experimental data is needed to calibrate the material parameter model.In the existing material model, there are still places such as damping, incomplete parameters, etc.The study of a complete set of material intrinsic model will help the research.

Conclusions
The purpose of the experiment was to investigate the effect of steel fiber volume fraction and blast loading rate on dynamic properties under blast loading.The research and finite element analysis of this experiment are reviewed.In this paper, SFRC specimens with different conditions were studied by using a planar blast wave device loading and LS-DYNA software simulation for comparative analysis, they were: five groups with different steel fiber contents (0%, 0.5%, 1.0%, 1.5% and 2.0% volume fraction) and different explosive equivalents (24 g RDX and 36 g RDX).In this paper, the mechanical properties of SFRC were analyzed in detail under different steel fiber content conditions and different explosive equivalent loading, and the strain rate effect and impact properties of SFRC were explained, and the following conclusions were drawn: (1) With the increase of explosive equivalent (increase of strain rate), the dynamic peak stress and corresponding strain as well as dynamic modulus of elasticity of steel fiber concrete are increased, and the strain rate effect is obvious (2) Under the same conditions of steel fiber content, as the explosive equivalent (blast loading rate) increases, the strain rate effect is obvious, the peak stress is significantly increased, and the energy absorption effect is better.For example, 2% steel fiber concrete at 36 g RDX increased the peak pressure by 42% compared to 24 g, while also absorbing more energy.(3) Under the same conditions of explosive equivalent (blast loading rate), with the increase in steel fiber content, the compressive strength of steel fiber concrete has a small increase (15% increase in 2% steel fiber concrete compared to 0% at 36 g RDX).At the same time, the splash phenomenon is effectively reduced and anti-blast performance significantly improved.(4) The dynamic response of SFRC spindle specimens loaded by planar blast wave device was simulated by LS-DYNA software, The damage pattern of the specimen is basically the same as the simulation results; meanwhile, the error of the simulated peak pressure and the actual pressure are within 5%.It can show that the improved K&C material model can accurately represent the dynamic response of SFRC subjected to blast loading.
