Experimental researches methods and results of impact impulse parameters in real rods columns

The experiments on impact impulse parameters were made using the special test bench. Two socket joint rods column (32 and 40 mm diameter) and one nipple joining rods column (33,5 mm diameter) were used. During the experiments strikers with wide range of parameters were used. Relationships of impact impulse amplitude, energy and duration to striker's geometries were obtained.
