To study the high strain-rate mechanical behaviour of polymers, it is suggested to generalize the split Hopkinson bar technique by using polymeric bars. The key of such a generalization lies in the method for determining the stresses and particle velocities at two interfaces of specimen from the strain pulse signals measured at the strain gauges located in a distance from the interface, taking account of the dispersion and dissipation of viscoelastic wave propagating in polymer bars. Based on a viscoelastic constitutive equation and the characteristics theory, such a method is developed and discussed in detail. Computational simulations of viscoelastic waves propagating in PMMA, PC and epoxy bars are presented, showing the influence of mate...
