Split Hopkinson pressure bar technique has been widely used to measure the dynamic tensile strength of concrete materials. Most experimental results show that the tensile strength of concrete material increases with strain rates. However, the dynamic tensile strength derived from the split Hopkinson pressure bar test is affected by lateral inertia confinement, which may lead to the overestimation of dynamic mechanical properties of concrete materials. The true dynamic characteristics of concrete materials are not actually shown by experimental data. It is impossible to completely eliminate the influence of lateral inertia confinement in split Hopkinson pressure bar tests. In this study, a rate-insensitive material model is used in commercial finite element software to study how the lateral inertia confinement affects the dynamic tensile strength of concrete material at strain rates between 30/s and 150/s. Comparison of finite element results and split Hopkinson pressure bar test results shows that the dynamic tensile strength enhancement of concrete materials is strongly influenced by the inertial effect. The dynamic increase factor of concrete materials which remove the influence of lateral inertia confinement in split Hopkinson pressure bar tests can reflect the true dynamic characteristics of concrete materials. It is also found that the influence of lateral inertia confinement is related to the size of the specimen.

The dynamic tensile strength plays a pivotal role in rock fragmentation affecting the overall economics under the present ‘Mine to Mill Concept’. In this paper, a modified SHPB technique and Brazilian test method is presented to test the dynamic tensile strength of coal, shale and sandstone rock samples collected from three opencast mines of Coal India Limited and is compared with the static strength value. The dynamic tensile strength of coal and rock is much higher than static strength and tensile strength of coal and rock samples increase with loading rate. The result shows that the dynamic strength of the coal sample is 1.5 times higher than static strength and the dynamic strength of the sandstone sample is 3 times higher than the static strength.

Abstract The paper presents the results of the analysis of the striker shape impact on the shape of the mechanical elastic wave generated in the Hopkinson bar. The influence of the tensometer amplifier bandwidth on the stress-strain characteristics obtained in this method was analyzed too. For the purposes of analyzing under the computing environment ABAQUS / Explicit the test bench model was created, and then the analysis of the process of dynamic deformation of the specimen with specific mechanical parameters was carried out. Based on those tests, it was found that the geometry of the end of the striker has an effect on the form of the loading wave and the spectral width of the signal of that wave. Reduction of the striker end diameter reduces unwanted oscillations, however, adversely affects the time of strain rate stabilization. It was determined for the assumed test bench configuration that a tensometric measurement system with a bandwidth equal to 50 kHz is sufficient
