摘要
We conducted a set of experiments of impact fragmentation of samples with voids, such as pumice stones and bricks. We discovered that the fragment size distribution follows a power law, but that the exponent of the distribution is different from that of the distribution by the fragmentation of a space-filling sample like a gypsum ball. The value of the exponent is about 0.9. And the value seems universal for samples with voids.
