Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) has become a frequently used technique for measuring compressive stress-strain relationship of various material and its alloys under high strain rate. In this report, a finite element simulation of a Split Hopkinson Bar is build to analyse the effect of varying sp...
