Purpose The properties of materials under impact load are introduced in terms of metal,
nonmetallic materials and composite materials. And the application of impact load research …

Coal bump refers to a sudden catastrophic failure of coal seam and usually can cause
serious damages to underground mining facilities and staff. In this circumstance, this paper …

Coupled static-dynamic tests were carried out on notched semi-circular bend (NSCB)
granitic specimens using a modified split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) device, to …

To understand combined effects of water saturation and loading rate on the fracture
behavior of rock materials, dynamic notched semi-circular bending (NSCB) tests were …

In the process of deep underground resource development and utilisation, the response of
the surrounding rock mass is affected by high temperatures and the dynamic loadings that …

An experimental investigation is conducted to study the quasi-static and dynamic fracture
behaviour of sedimentary, igneous and metamorphic rocks. The notched semi-circular …

The formation of a complex hydraulic fracture network in a naturally fractured reservoir is
strongly influenced by the distribution of pre-existing natural fractures and the interaction …

Abstract The International Society for Rock Mechanics (ISRM) has suggested a notched
semi-circular bend technique in split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) testing to determine …

To investigate the crack propagation and dynamic mechanical properties of coal under high
strain rate loading, 24 sets of Brazilian disk (BD) coal specimens with vertical and horizontal …

Dynamic indirect tensile tests were carried out by using a Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar
(SHPB) for coal sampled from the Datong mine in China. The principal purpose was to …
