as follows: The deformation and wave propagation should be uniform and uniaxial so that the strain rate and compressive stress wave could be determined accurately based on the technique introduced by Kolsky. The maximum strain rate of 5000 should be attained by the apparatus.The design constraints are as follows: Due to limitation of the laboratory space, the apparatus size should be limited to 2 meters in length. Due to budget limitation, the total cost of the prototype should not exceed $1000.Initial Design:As shown in Figure 2, the major components of a generic Split Hopkinson Pressure Barapparatus are as follows: Nitrogen Tank / Compressor is the pressure source that the striker projectile is provided in
