Abstract
This paper presents an experimental investigation of the strain rate effect on unidirectional carbon–epoxy IM7-8552 loaded in longitudinal compression. A dynamic compression fixture was developed for a split-Hopkinson pressure bar to test flat rectangular specimens. The dynamic experiment was designed by finite element analysis, using an axis-symmetric elastic model of the test setup. Due to the linear specimen stress–strain behaviour,...
