In this paper some highlights are presented of an integrated numerical and experimental approach to obtain an in-depth understanding of the high strain rate behavior of materials. This is illustrated by an investigation of the multiphase TRansformation Induced Plasticity (TRIP) steel. ‘Classic’ high strain rate tensile experiments using a split Hopkinson tensile bar setup are complemented with strain rate jump tests, tensile tests at elevated temperatures and interrupted experiments. High strain rate compression and three-point bending experiments are performed on the steel sheets as well. The results reveal the excellent energy-absorption properties in dynamic circumstances of TRIP steels. Advanced experimental setups using the Hopkinson principle provide indeed tools for validation of the material and structural properties of TRIP steels.

The performance of reinforced concrete structures under combined effects of blast and fire is growing in interest of the research and engineering communities specially after the recent terrorist attacks as well as severe accidents (i.e. Gotthard tunnel, etc.). The mechanical behaviour of concrete and reinforcing steel when are subjected to extreme temperatures, impacts or blast has still many aspects open to investigation. In this paper the behaviour of AISI304, B500B and B500A reinforcing steel at high strain rate (500 s-1) and at three levels of temperature (200, 400 and 600°C) is presented. The results were obtained by using a Split Hopkinson Tensile Bar (SHTB) equipped with a heating system.

In this paper, ultra-fine grained copper fabricated by equal channel angular pressing method and annealed coarse grained copper were tensioned under both quasi-static and dynamic loading conditions using an electronic universal testing machine and the split Hopkinson tension bar respectively. The rapture surface of specimen was also observed via a Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). The experimental results show that the ductility of polycrystalline copper decreases remarkably due to the grain refinement. However, with the increase of applied strain rate, ductility of the UFG-Cu is enhanced. The fracture morphologies also give the evidence of enhanced ductility of UFG-Cu at high strain rate. It is believed the enhanced ductility of UFG materials at high strain rate can be attributed to the restrained dislocation dynamic recovery.
