Quasi-static and dynamic compression tests are conducted on carbonate sand using a Material Testing System and a modified split Hopkinson pressure bar, respectively. The particle size distributions (PSDs) of carbonate sand before and after loading are measured via laser diffractometry. The stress–st...
