The basic physical principle of a Modified Hopkinson Bar (MHB) Apparatus for testing rock specimens at high strain rate in tension and compression is presented. The MHB has been provided with a pulse shaper needed for an accurate dynamic testing at constant strain rate both during the elastic deformation phase and the strain hardening phase of the dynamic stress-strain curve; definitions of strain rate and of the record analysis methodology for an accurate determination of the dynamic stress-strain curves are discussed. A version of the MHB has been presented for the study of the effects of confinement on the dynamic stress-strain curves of rock materials. Some versions of the MHB for field measurements of dynamic mechanical properties of rocks are proposed.
