Aluminium foam is a kind of metal foam material which has large energy absorption capability. The mechanical properties of aluminium foam material in high strain rates could be measured by using SHPB. Numerical simulation is used as the initial step to measure mechanical properties of this material. MAT 163 modified crushable foam used as material model in the SHPB numerical simulation of aluminium foam. Numerical simulation showed a quite close results to experimental data.
