Dynamic tests of fine-grained fired dioxide-zirconia ceramics under compression under uniaxial stress conditions were carried out. The influence of the specimen length on the obtained strength and deformation properties of ceramics is investigated. The thickness of the specimen has a significant impact on the course of the obtained dynamic stress-strain diagrams: short specimens have a much more sloping area of active loading branch. The main contribution to the modulus of the load branch resulting from tests of brittle porous media is made by the geometry of the specimens and the porosity of the material. When choosing the length of specimens for dynamic tests, the optimal geometry of the tested specimens is preferable in accordance with the Davies-Hunter criterion, when the contributions of axial and radial inertia are mutually compensated, and the contribution of the effects of friction in the resulting diagram is minimal. When choosing the geometry of specimens of brittle porous media, the structure of the material should be taken into account so that the size of the specimen (both length and diameter) exceeds the size of the internal fractions of the material by at least five times.
