A review of the response of sand under high strain rate (HSR) loading is presented. The
response observed in HSR uniaxial compression tests, split-hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) …

An extensive review of literature related to particle breakage and crushing has been done in
this paper by filtering out a total of 183 articles from the respective domains. Based upon the …

The particle breakage of angular and porous calcareous sands at high strain rates (HSRs) is
important but rarely quantified. This paper conducts a series of split-Hopkinson pressure bar …

Calcareous sand has distinct characteristics in comparison with silica sand, such as
dynamic behavior at high strain rates (HSRs). This is closely related to pile driving, aircraft …

The dynamic compressive behavior of sorted and unsorted Eglin sand (Quikrete# 1961 sand
quarried in Pensacola, FL) under confinement was characterized under dry or moisture …

The influence of strain rate on the mechanics of particles is well documented. However, a
comprehensive understanding of the strain rate effect on calcareous particles, particularly in …

The impact behavior of sand is paramount to geotechnical and protective engineering.
Although the one-dimensional impact responses of sand are extensively studied, the …

The dynamic compression responses of quartz sands of different grain sizes and gradations
are tested with a modified spilt Hopkinson pressure bar in which a single-pulse loading …

The mechanical behaviour of Eglin sand at the micro-scale was studied in this work.
Laboratory experiments using unconventional apparatuses were carried out in order to …

The dynamic compression responses of dry quartz sand are tested with a modified spilt
Hopkinson pressure bar (MSHPB), and the quasi-static compression responses are tested …
