| Abstract: | This study examines the influence of friction at the specimen–bar interface on the macroscopic response of materials during dynamic compression tests using the split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) under high-deformation-rate conditions. A mesoscale model is employed to simulate and compare results with experimental data, and a finite element model of cylindrical specimens with varying slenderness ratios is developed in Abaqus/Explicit. Numerical analyzes show that both specimen geometry and boundary conditions, particularly friction, have a decisive impact on the accuracy and reliability of SHPB measurements. A friction correction method based on barreling factor and plastic deformation demonstrates closer agreement with experimental observations than conventional approaches, revealing that the widely used Avitzur model may overestimate friction by 34–39%. The results highlight the importance of accurate friction correction and the selection of optimal specimen dimensions to minimize testing errors. These findings improve the precision of dynamic material characterization and support the development of more reliable constitutive models to predict material behavior across a broad range of strain rates.
