Stress Equilibrium in the Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar Test [PDF]
The compressive split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) technique allows the stresses on each end of the specimen to be measured individually. Results are presented showing a large difference between these end pressures, depending on specimen length and loading rate. The mechanisms responsible are show to be a combination of inertial forces and non-uniform

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.

A Numerical Investigation of Deformed Region in Plate Specimen of Split-Hopkinson Tensile Bar [PDF]
In Hopkinson bar theory, stress, strain, and strain rate can be determined by analyzing the dimensions of the specimen. When conducting Split-Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) experiments, the stress-strain curve is obtained by considering the entire length ...

New experimental techniques with the split Hopkinson pressure bar [PDF]
The split Hopkinson pressure bar or Kolsky bar has provided for many years a technique for performing compression tests at strain rates approaching 10/sup 4/ s/sup -1/. At these strain rates, the small dimensions possible in a compression test specimen give an advantage over a dynamic tensile test by allowing the stress within the specimen to ...
