A novel experimental method was proposed for characterizing the compressive properties of composite materials under impact loading. Split Hopkinson pressure bar system was employed to carry out the dynamic compression tests. The dynamic stress-strain relations could be precisely estimated by the proposed method, where the ramped input, generated by the plastic deformation of a zinc buffer, was effective to reduce the oscillation of the stress field in the specimen. The longitudinal strain of gage area could be estimated from the nominal deformation of gage area, and consequently the failure process could be grasped in detail from the stress-strain relation. The dynamic compressive strength of the material was slightly higher than the static compressive strength. In addition, the validity of the proposed method was confirmed by the computational and experimental results.

This study derived the five parameters in Johnson-Cook equation of CP titanium Gr2. Quasi-static and dynamic compression tests were designed to measure mechanical properties at strain rates of 10-3s-1 and 6000s-1. In order to secure the validity of tested data, a novel fixture was proposed to reduce the displacement measurement error in MTS testing system and the signal processing procedure of compressive split Hopkinson pressure bar for the present study was demonstrated. With the tested data and calculated adiabatic heating temperature rise, parameters A, B, n, m, C have been derived based on mathematical deduction and solve. It was found that the constructed constitutive model fit the tested data well and was able to restore the yield strength value at high strain rate.

The dynamic compression tests of reinforced concrete with different reinforcement ratios are carried out by split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB). Reinforced steel bar is placed along longitudinal and transverse direction. Experimental results show that reinforced concrete is non-linear and rate-dependent. With the enhancement of strain rate, the peak stress of reinforced concrete increases correspondingly

In the presented work two grades of steel i.e. microalloyed ferrite (M_F) and microalloyed austenite (M_A) where subjected to the grain refinement processes using MaxStrain system and thermomechanical rolling. The wide range of grain size, starting from 200 µm down to submicrometer level was produced in this way. The specimens of both steels were subjected to the dynamic compression tests using the Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) apparatus and applying the strain rates in the range between ε˙ = 3750s-1 and ε˙ = 6000s-1. In addition, different temperatures were used in the tests, i.e.200 °C and 400 °C. The first peak of stress which is observed during elastic-plastic transition during the dynamic compression tests can be treated as a characteristic feature of the tested material. The results obtained in the present investigations showed a significant dependence of the “first stress peak” in the dynamic compression curve on the degree of the microstructure refinement for the samples of M_F and almost complete absence of this dependence for M_A.

Strain rate response of polycarbonate was investigated under uniaxial compression at different rates of strain ranging from 0.0001/sec to about 8200/sec and different temperature ranging from 145k to about 423k. A split Hopkinson pressure bar was used to determine the dynamic compressive responses. A pulse-shaping technique was employed in dynamic compression experiment to ensure that valid experimental conditions were satisfied. Results show that, compared with quasi-static behavior, dynamic compression results in significantly higher compressive strengths for polycarbonate materials.

Recently, engineering blasting is widely applied in projects such as rock mineral mining, construction of underground cavities and field-leveling excavation. Dynamic mechanical performance of rocks has been gradually attached importance both in China and abroad. Concrete and rock are two kinds of the most frequently used engineering materials and also frequently used as experimental objects currently. To compare dynamic mechanical performance of these two materials, this study performed dynamic compression test with five different strain rates on concrete and rock using Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) to obtain basic dynamic mechanical parameters of them and then summarized the relationship of dynamic compressive strength, peak strain and strain rate of two materials. Moreover, specific energy absorption is introduced to confirm dynamic damage mechanisms of concrete and rock materials. This work can not only help to improve working efficiency to the largest extent but also ensure the smooth development of engineering, providing rich theoretical guidance for development of related engineering in the future.

Dynamic compressive tests were carried out for concrete specimens after exposure to temperatures 23°C, 400°C, 600°C and 800°C by using Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar(SHPB) apparatus. Cylindrical specimens with 98mm in diameter and 49mm in length were used in tests. The strain rates achieved in tests ranged from 30s-1 to 220s-1. The results showed that the compressive strength increases with increasing strain-rate, but decreases with the increase of temperature. However, the effect of strain-rate on improving the compressive strength of concrete decreases with the increase of temperature. Moreover, the strain-rate has an improvement on the peak strain of concrete, and the accretion rate increases with increasing temperature.


This paper describes a modification of the split Hopkinson pressure bar, to allow compression testing of high strength metals at a strain rate of up to about 10 5 s –1 . All dimensions are minimized to reduce effects of dispersion and inertia, with specimens of the order of 1 mm diameter. Strain is calculated from the stress record and calibrated with high-speed photography. Particular attention has been paid to the accuracy of the technique, and errors arising from nonlinearity in the instrumentation, dispersion, frictional restraint and inertia have all been quantitatively assessed. Stress–strain results are presented of Ti 6A14V alloy, a high strength tungsten alloy, and pure copper.

The strain rate sensitivity of neoprene is characterized using a modified split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) system at intermediate (50 s-1, 100 s-1) and high (500 s-1, 1000 s-1) strain rates. We used two quartz piezoelectric force transducers that were sandwiched between the specimen and experimental bars respectively to directly measure the weak wave signals. A laser gap gage was employed to monitor the deformation of the sample directly. Three kinds of neoprene rubbers (Shore hardness: SHA60, SHA65, and SHA70) were tested using the modified split Hopkinson pressure bar. Experimental results show that the modified apparatus is effective and reliable for determining the compressive stress-strain responses of neoprene at intermediate and high strain rates.
