Abstract
By giving careful thought to the design of the force transducer, a dropweight machine bas been constructed capable of giving
mechanical data of comparable accuracy to a split Hopkinson pressure bar. This has proved particularly useful in deforming
large cylinders of hard metals to large plastic strains at high strain rates (ca. 500 to 1000 s
-1). In conjunction with high-speed photography and finite element analysis, this device is proving to be a valuable stringent
validation test for advanced constitutive models.
