I have posted a movie showing a ring expansion experiment. A thin aluminum ring is made to expand through electromagnetic interaction at strain rates of about 10^4 per second. As the strain increases, numerous necks and fragments appear. Multiple fragments are developed; further details are in the journal paper. This movie is posted on the blog associated with the International Journal of Fracture.
