Experimental and numerical study on the effect of strain rate to ductile damage by Bowden, Andrew Scott

“…FEA modelling techniques were optimized to minimize computation time. The most important was the use of infinite elements to simulate the bars which, when calibrated, were found to be the ideal method of modelling split Hopkinson bars. …”
