The different stages of an impact on laminated glass are difficult to observe and quantify but
are essential for numerical model validation. To assess the performance of this composite to …

The essence of dynamic failure is closely linked to dramatic shear deformations which often
lead to the formation of adiabatic shear bands (ASB). Under high loading velocities and the …

Aluminum nitride (AlN) is a promising electronic material for high reliability electronic
packaging structures. Quasi-static and dynamic flexural tests have been conducted on AlN …

A ring-on-ring test configuration for the equibiaxial flexural testing of flat samples was
integrated into a novel modified split-Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) setup. The …

The strain rate sensitivity of the compressive strength of fibre-reinforced concrete (FRC) to
the applied load, which is observed during dynamic loading, is analysed based on the …

The aim of the experimental and analytical work was to monitor and analyze the strains and
deflections of steel cantilevers using a bistable glass-coated microwire, as a contactless …

The main goal of this work is to numerically analyze different split Hopkinson pressure bar
setups and validate the obtained results with experiments. To achieve this, three different …
