A velocity measurement device was developed to measure the velocity of the striker bar of Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) set up. It measures the range of velocity magnitudes for different size of striker bars. The velocity measurement device measures velocity of the striker bar for varying pressure values. The readings were calibrated under freefall, SHPB and also using a ballistic impact testing setup present at the authors facility. The device was developed to produce consistent readings and these readings were tabulated.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
