Investigating slow shock in low-impedance materials using a direct impact Hopkinson bar setup

This work implements a direct impact Hopkinson bar, suitable for investigating the evolution of dynamic force equilibrium in low-impedance materials. Polycarbonate as the bar material favours for a long pulse duration of 2.6 ms for an overall length of only 5 m, allowing to compress large specimens...
