Sn-58Bi alloy is a strain-rate-sensitive material. To study the mechanical properties of Sn-58Bi alloy, an MTS universal testing machine and split-Hopkinson pressure bar were used to conduct quasi-static and dynamic testing on Sn-58Bi alloy, obtaining the stress-strain curve of Sn-58Bi alloy at the strain rate of 0.001–6316 s ^−1 . By comparing the tensile and compressive stress–strain curves of Sn-58Bi alloy under quasi-static conditions, it is found that Sn-58Bi alloy is brittle, with its tensile yield strength lower than its compressive yield strength. By comparing the compressive stress–strain curves of Sn-58Bi alloy at different strain rates, it is found that the yield strength of Sn-58Bi alloy increases with increasing strain rate, and a strain-hardening phenomenon is manifested at high strain rate. By revising the Johnson–Cook constitutive model, the constitutive model of Sn-58Bi alloy at different strain rates was established, with the calculated results of the model in good agreement with the experimental results.
