Effect of Stress Wave Dispersion on Hopkinson Pressure Bar Loaded Fracture Test

Abstract:

Some fundamental issues, such as stress wave dispersion effect, loss of contact, pulse shaping effect are still needed to thoroughly understand in Hopkinson pressure bar loaded fracture experimental techniques. In order to avoid the influence of stress wave dispersion on the analysis of dynamic experimental results, a computational procedure has been developed based on the combined analytical solution of Pochhammer-Chree with Fourier spectroscopy analysis. The validity of this proposed computational procedure was confirmed via the comparison with the experimental stress pulses obtained from pulse-shaped tests. The experimental results can be easily interpreted and the testing accuracy can be improved using this computational procedure.
