[0041] This invention provides a device for material impact loading testing, constructing a highly flexible and scalable open experimental platform: the modular architecture of this system allows functional units such as impact loading, sensor velocimetry, control acquisition, and imaging adaptation to work collaboratively or be upgraded or replaced independently; users can freely combine and configure them according to specific research purposes, such as different energy ranges, different sample types, and different imaging modes, without the need for customized special equipment, significantly reducing the threshold and cost of using high-end experimental technologies, while reserving open interfaces and space for the integration of new functions and technologies in the future.

[0042] Example 2 like Figure 15 As shown, a test method for material impact loading, using an apparatus for material impact loading testing as described in Example 1, includes the following steps: S1: Placement of test materials: The test materials are fixed on the test platform 7 and placed in the center of the test platform 7; S2: Adjust the laser velocity measuring mechanism 3: Check the measuring optical path 23 of the laser velocity measuring mechanism 3 and adjust the measuring optical path 23 to always be within the laser velocity measuring range; check the connectivity of each laser line, the connection of the sensors, and check that the trigger signal of the data analysis unit 9 is normal; adjust the position of the laser source of the laser velocity measuring mechanism 3 according to the height of the sample to be tested, and keep the deformation process of the test material always within the range of the laser velocity measuring range; S3: Install ambient light shield 10: Cover the test platform 7 with ambient light shield 10; S4: Adjust the ambient light shield 10: Adjust the ambient light shield 10 so that the test material, the first through hole 101 and the second through hole 102 are in a straight line, and the optical path 23 passes through the first through hole 101 and the second through hole 102. S5: Conduct an impact test: Set the impact loading height according to the experimental requirements, set the oscilloscope to the ready-to-trigger state, and release the impact component 6 to impact the test material. S6: Acquiring test data: The laser velocimetry mechanism 3 obtains the velocity change history of the impact component 6 impacting the test material; the X-ray detection component 2 obtains image data of the internal microstructure changes of the test material under impact. S7: Data Analysis: Perform time correlation analysis between the mechanical response of the test material and X-ray image frames.

[0043] The guide rail assembly 4 guides the impact assembly 6, enhancing its falling stability and allowing operators to accurately control the impact energy, avoiding unexpected loads. The X-ray detection assembly 2 performs non-destructive testing on the test material, preventing damage. The ambient light shield 10 isolates the influence of ambient light on X-ray imaging, ensuring more accurate measurement data. The laser velocimetry mechanism 3 obtains more accurate measurement data of the falling velocity of the impact assembly 6. All data have a unified timestamp, providing a strictly synchronized multimodal data stream for subsequent analysis. Time correlation analysis between the mechanical response of the test material and X-ray image frames can be performed, resulting in more accurate impact resistance test results for the test material.

[0044] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
