Abstract
The Split Hopkinson or Kolsky bar is one of the most popular devices when it comes to the mechanical characterization of material samples under high strain-rates. While testing of high impedance materials, such as metal alloys, is relatively straight forward, samples with low impedance pose certain challenges. The present work focuses on the detailed implementation of a high strain-rate tensile testing method for thin, low impedance, sheet-like materials by using the Split Hopkinson test principle. In order to find a suitable Split Hopkinson setup a digital twin was created using explicit finite element methods. With the help of the digital twin, the design of the transmission bar and the sample holders including the friction liners were explored. The numerical model indicated, that a hollow transmission bar with a moderate tapering (hollow bar 1.0) is suited for the characterization of low impedance materials over a wide strain-rate range. Furthermore, this setup has to be combined with an asymmetrical sample holder configuration (heavier on the incident side and lighter on the transmission side) and aluminum friction liners to return accurate results. This numerically derived setup was validated against experimental tests on paper, representative of low impedance, sheet-like materials.
