REL's SURE-Pulse Software processes the information recorded with oscilloscope software used in Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar procedures. This software is designed to analyze oscilloscope waveforms to determine high strain rate testing results; such as: Stress, Strain, and Strain Rate. SURE-Pulse Software directly integrates strain results from high-speed cameras displaying them in graphs. Different sample geometries can also be accommodated.
SURE-Pulse can load data from multiple shots for comparison. Data and graphs can be exported into Microsoft ® Excel ® format or saved to be viewed later.
MATERIAL TESTING AND ANALYSIS REL offers comprehensive Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar testing with complete material analysis. Services include, but are not limited to:
• Sample preparation • Sample mounts tailored to test • On-site SEM; material analysis • Recommendations and insight on test results
The SURE-Pulse software helps verify the system’s accuracy by including checks in the system to insure it is well aligned and calibrated.
