Compressive behaviour of concrete at high strain rates

TL;DR: Experimental techniques commonly used for high strain-rate testing of concrete in compression, together with the methods used for measurement and recording of stress and strain, are critically assessed in the first part of this paper as discussed by the authors.

A Review of Dynamic Experimental Techniques and Mechanical Behaviour of Rock Materials

TL;DR: A review of the development and the state of the art in dynamic testing techniques and dynamic mechanical behaviour of rock materials can be found in this article, where a detailed description of various dynamic mechanical properties (e.g., uniaxial and triaxial compressive strength, tensile strength, shear strength and fracture toughness) and corresponding fracture behaviour are discussed.

Dynamic behavior of concrete at high strain rates and pressures: I. experimental characterization

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of loading rate, hydrostatic pressure and microstructural heterogeneity on the load-carrying capacities of concrete and mortar were investigated using split Hopkinson pressure bar and plate impact.

About the dynamic strength enhancement of concrete-like materials in a split Hopkinson pressure bar test

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the application of split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) to determine the dynamic strength of concrete-like materials whose compressive strength is hydrostatic-stress-dependent and showed that the apparent dynamic strength enhancement beyond the strain-rate of 102 s−1 is strongly influenced by the hydrostatic stress effect due to the lateral inertia confinement in a SHPB test.

Impact Response of Reinforced Concrete Beam and Its Analytical Evaluation

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the impact responses of reinforced concrete (RC) beams through an experimental study and presented an analytical model developed to predict the maximum midspan deflection and maximum impact load.
