Numerical study of the influence of the specimen geometry on split Hopkinson bar tensile test results Universiteit Gent
Finite element simulations of high strain rate tensile experiments oil sheet materials using different specimen geometries are presented. The simulations component ail experimental study, using a split Hopkinson tensile bar set-up, Coupled with a. full-field deformation measurement, device. The simulations give detailed information on the stress state. Due to the small size of the specimens and the way they are connected to the test device, ...
