Advancements in the Split Hopkinson Bar Test

Compare and Contrast, A Test of Ex

In this paper we present three key elements of case-based reasoning (“CBR”) and describe how these are realized in our HYPO program which performs legal reasoning in the domain of trade secret law by comparing and contrasting cases. More specifically, the key elements involve how prior cases are used for: (1) Credit assignment of factual features; (2) Justification; and (3) Argument in domains ...

Stress Equilibrium in the Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar Test

The compressive split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) technique allows the stresses on each end of the specimen to be measured individually. Results are presented showing a large difference between these end pressures, depending on specimen length and loading rate. The mechanisms responsible are shown to be a combination of inertial forces and non-uniform deformation due to wave propagation. Impl...
