Torsion Split Hopkinson Bar (TSHB) is widely used in the dynamic shear characterization of material under pure shear loading. In TSHB, tubular specimens with either circular or hexagonal flanges are used. The specimens with circular flanges are generally bonded using adhesive to the incident and transmission bars. The specimens with hexagonal flanges are gripped into the hexagonal holders that are fixed onto incident and transmission bars. In the current study, numerical simulations are carried out to see the effect of gripping arrangements on the dynamic shear characterization quality. Numerical experiments with three gripping configurations are studied—the first gripping configuration with a direct bond (numerically-tie) between specimen and bars. The second configuration with the specimen gripped by hexagonal holders fixed to bars. The third configuration with specimen directly gripped into the incident and transmission bars having hexagonal slots.

The Split Hopkinson Bar (SHB) technique is used for high strain rate testing of T800/F3900 composite in compression, tension and shear. Digital Image Correlation (DIC) is used for measuring the full-field deformation on the surface of the specimen by using Shimadzu HPV-X2 high-speed video camera. Compression tests have been done on specimens machined from a unidirectional laminate in the 0°and 90° directions. Tensile tests were done in the 90° direction. Shear tests were done by using a notched specimen in a compression SHB apparatus. To study the effect of strain rate, quasi-static testing was also done using DIC and specimens with the same geometry as in the SHB tests. The results show that the DIC technique provides accurate strain measurements even at strains that are smaller than 1%. No strain rate effect is observed in compression in the 0° direction and significant strain rate effects are observed in compression and tension in the 90° direction, and in shear.
