Experimental and Numerical Analyses of the Rational Loading Waveform in SHPB Test for Rock Materials

Aiming at the determination of the rational loading waveform for rock materials, the comparative impact tests under the loadings of rectangular and half-sine stress waves were performed on red sandstone using an Ø50 mm SHPB apparatus. Experimental results with the rectangular stress wave affirm that...
