We consider one-dimensional discrete models for dynamic fragmentation
with mass consumption. The fragmentation cascade is randomly interrupt
ed by inactivation of fragments. Exact solutions are obtained. The sca
ling regimes for the average number of fragments n(s, t) with mass s a
t time t are investigated for short and long times. We also study nume
rically the fluctuations in the size distribution of inactivated sites
(intermittency analysis).
