During the high speed propagation of cracks, large temperature increases occur at the crack tip due to the intense dissipation of plastic work there. This increased temperature may have a significant effect of the material’s dynamic fracture toughness. An experimental investigation of the temperature fields at the tip of dynamically propagating cracks in 4340 steel was performed using a focused array of high speed, infrared detectors. Temperature fields were measured for cracks growing at speeds from 700m/s to 1900m/s. Maximum temperature increases were as high as 465°C. The temperature fields were differentiated to determine the plastic work rate distribution at the crack tip and to estimate the plastic strain rate. Effects of crack tip heating on dynamic fracture toughness are discussed.

In 2012, the International Society for Rock Mechanics (ISRM) recommended a new Notched Semicircular Bend (NSCB) method for the determination of dynamic fracture toughness of rock materials, but it did not consider the effect of some uncontrollable factors in the course of the experiment on the test result. This thesis firstly carried out dynamic fracture toughness experiments on several typical rock materials such as sandstone using the modified Split-Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) experimental system with high-speed photography, directly compared the dynamic fracture failure characteristics of several rock materials, and examined the loading rate dependency of the dynamic fracture toughness of rock materials. Based on the numerical analysis method of Discrete Lattice Spring Model (DLSM), it focused on the effect of bullet impact loading rate, loading area of incident bar, support restraints of clamping specimen, and other uncontrollable factors in the course of SHPB experiment on test results. The findings can be referenced for the improvement of NSCB method.
