Lateral Marsh Edge Erosion as a Source of Sediments for Vertical Marsh Accretion [PDF]
With sea level rise accelerating and sediment inputs to the coast declining worldwide, there is concern that tidal wetlands will drown. To better understand this concern, sources of sediment contributing to marsh elevation gain were computed for Plum ...

X-ray microtomographic characterization and quantification of the strain rate dependent failure mechanism in cenosphere epoxy syntactic foams [PDF]
This work investigates the failure mechanism in cenosphere epoxy syntactic foams at the quasi-static and dynamic strain rates. Split-Hopkinson pressure bar experiments are controlled to stop dynamic deformation of the foams at various strain stages.

First application of the 3D-MHB on dynamic compressive behavior of UHPC
In order to study the dynamic behaviour of material in confined conditions a new machine was conceived and called 3D-Modified Hopkinson Bar (3D-MHB). It is a Modified Hopkinson Bar apparatus designed to apply dynamic loading in materials having a tri ...

Signal Correction for the Split-Hopkinson Bar Testing of Soft Materials
The Split-Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) test is a commonly accepted experiment to investigate the material behavior under high strain rates. Due to the low impedance of soft materials, here, the test has to be performed with plastic bars instead of metal

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 ...

On backward dispersion correction of Hopkinson pressure bar signals [PDF]
Elastic theory shows that wide spectrum signals in the Hopkinson pressure bar suffer two forms of distortion as they propagate from the loaded bar face. These must be accounted for if accurate determination of the impact load is to be possible. The first form of distortion is the well-known phase velocity dispersion effect.

Application of photon Doppler velocimetry to direct impact Hopkinson pressure bars. [PDF]
Direct impact Hopkinson pressure bar systems offer many potential advantages over split Hopkinson pressure bars, including access to higher strain rates, higher strains for equivalent striker velocity and system length, lower dispersion, and faster ...
