Biaxial Compression Tests on Hopkinson Bars [PDF]
A biaxial compression Hopkinson bar set-up bas been designed. It consists in a projectile, an input bar and two co-axial output bars. After the projectile impact on the input bar, the internal output bar measures the axial loading of the cross sample ...

Dynamic rock tests using split Hopkinson (Kolsky) bar system – A review
Dynamic properties of rocks are important in a variety of rock mechanics and rock engineering problems. Due to the transient nature of the loading, dynamic tests of rock materials are very different from and much more challenging than their static ...

Numerical investigation on the effect of specimen gripping arrangement on dynamic shear characterization using Torsion Split Hopkinson Bar [PDF]
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

Development of an innovative specimen geometry for tensile split Hopkinson tests [PDF]
Specimen manufacturing is one of the critical issues to solve during a dynamic material characterization, especially by mean of the Hopkinson bar technique. In particular, concerning tensile testing, the sample is generally axisymmetric with two threaded

The split Hopkinson bar bulge setup: a novel dynamic biaxial test method [PDF]
In sheet metal forming, very often, large plastic deformations are imposed to a thin plate. An accurate description of the material’s elastoplastic response is therefore of paramount importance to perform finite element (FE) simulations of an actual ...

In order to perform experimental identification of high strain rate material models, engineers have only a very limited toolbox based on test procedures developed decades ago. The best example is the so-called split Hopkinson pressure bar based on the bar concept introduced 100 years ago by Bertram Hopkinson to measure blast pulses.

Blast Quantification Using Hopkinson Pressure Bars [PDF]
Near-field blast load measurement presents an issue to many sensor types as they must endure very aggressive environments and be able to measure pressures up to many hundreds of megapascals. In this respect the simplicity of the Hopkinson pressure bar has a major advantage in that while the measurement end of the Hopkinson bar can endure and be exposed

Miniature Beryllium Split-Hopkinson Pressure Bars for Extending the Range of Achievable Strain-Rates
Conventional Split Hopkinson Pressure Bars (SHPB) or “Kolsky” bars are often used for determining the high-rate compressive yield and failure strength of materials.

Soft projectile impact forces measurement using Hopkinson bars: application to ice, artificial bird and rubber [PDF]
This work presents an experimental campaign of impacts of soft projectiles to measure the induced force during the impact. Three different materials acting as soft impactors that could strike against a aeronautical structural component: ice, artificial ...
