Observation of microscopic damage accumulation in brittle solids subjected to dynamic compressive loading
Observation of microscopic damage accumulation in brittle solids subjected to dynamic compressive loading is a scholarly work, published in 2013 in ''Review of Scientific Instruments''. The main subjects of the publication include deformation, composite material, materials science, dynamic load testing, Split-Hopkinson pressure bar, bar, dynamic loading, brittleness, rock mechanics, and strain rate. The authors proposed a methodology to do that and demonstrated it by studying the dynamic compressive damage evolution of a granitic rock loaded with a modified split Hopkinson pressure bar system.
