Abstract
The mechanical behavior of most materials is known to be dependent upon the rate of deformation, in addition to other factors such as temperature and structure. Accurate investigations of the rate effect are essential in order to be able to complete the total picture of material behavior. It has been known for many years that in dynamic testing, solids behave in a somewhat different way than they do in static testing. In this investigation, dynamic uniaxial compressive tests are conducted on cylindrical specimens of aluminium silicon alloys with different dimensions, using a Hopkinson pressure bar method, the results being compared to those of corresponding tests at quasi-static levels.
