The split Hopkinson bar technique is the most widely used method to study material behavior at high strain rate deformation. In the present paper, a torsional Hopkinson bar for testing thin-walled tube specimens at high strain rate is described. From the experiment of aluminum 6061, dynamic stress-strain relationship can be obtained and dynamic result is compared with static one.
