Exploring effects of property variation on fragmentation of metal rings using a simple model

A simple finite element implementation of the Mott model for fragmentation of a thin walled ring has been implemented and used to explore the effect of local variations in fracture strain around the ring. The model has successfully reproduced the fragment size distributions previously reported, whic...
