Abstract

Results of tests using two kinds of nylon reinforced concrete samples are described. In order to deal with the heterogeneous effects of samples resulted from large particles which range from7mm to 10mm in diameters, a SPH bar which is 74mm in diameter is used. There seems something new and difficult in the method of testing the concrete's dynamic compressive responses. The results show that there are obvious strain rate effects in both the two kinds of samples, and the failure strength increases with the increasing of the strain rate.
