Combining field tests and numerical simulations, influences of initial conditions on damage and failure effect of steel square tubes under lateral local explosion loading were studied. Q235 steel square tubes with 3 kinds of wall thickness including 3mm, 3.5mm and 4mm and each cross-section width of 100mm were set in an explosion field produced by 160g TNT explosive to conduct impact tests. Influences of charge’s scaled distance Z and width-thickness ratio W of square tube on important damage deformation feature parameters, such as, center deflection of tube’s exploding surface, radial width and axial length of depression deformation zone etc. were analyzed. Numerical simulations for deformation and failure process of square tubes were done with the dynamic finite element program LS-DYNA and the fluid-solid coupled algorithm. The calculated results agreed well with test phenomena. Based on strain-time curves of tube’s key nodes, deformation’s different stages of tube exploding surface’s center point and right vertex of tube’s cross-section were analyzed. The study provided an important scientific basis for structural design and engineering protection calculation of steel square tubes.
