Hello I am an undergraduate researcher working with a Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar and I'm new to this site. We recently changed from a set of 3/4" aluminum bars to a set of 1/2" aluminum bars and an interesting result occured. Our data collection system consists of a pair of strain gages midway along each bar.
