## PRO-R Poolc [l] expressed concern about two potential shortcomings of our new technique for measuring fracture toughness [2]. We wish to thank him for expressing these concerns. However, neither represents a significant issue that could detract from the usefulness of the new technique. Profess
It is considered that EUROSEM is already able, in principle, to replicate all the combinations of detachment and transport considered by Kinnell's discussion, with suitable parameter values. Some effects will only be reproducible when EUROSEM contains a more explicit representation of particle sizes
