Abstract: It is shown that the Gilvarry distribution offers a good description of cumulative distributions of the number and volume (mass) of fragments as functions of the linear size, area, or mass of the fragments, which are obtained in experiments on dynamic fragmentation of brittle and ductile solids.

Keywords: dynamic fragmentation, statistical fragmentation theory.
