The large diameter (up to 100 mm) Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) setup is used throughout the world to test large-cell heterogeneous materials, small structures, etc. This paper proposes a correction method to take into account the non-uniform distribution of stress and particle velocity (non-p
