SUMMARY: Developed a modeling approach to evaluate structural and occupant responses to ground vehicle underbody blasts * Fit surrogate models to reduce computational expense * Demonstrated two optimization formulations and their results * Accounted for uncertainty in charge parameters * Quantified negative correlation between vehicle mass and occupant injury probability * Added floor padding to reduce tibia impact.
