Abstract
A number of studies over the intervening years since Mott’s seminal theoretical efforts in dynamic fragmentation have been undertaken which allow testing of his theories. Some were pursued specifically for that purpose. Others were undertaken for other applications, but nonetheless provide useful test data for examining aspects of the theory.
