Fig. 4

Representation of the collision geometry for two superposed monomers. When θ < θ0, then the superposition remains stable. When θ > θ0, the cohesive link between the monomers is broken and the upper monomer will bounce randomly following some of the green arrows and will attach itself to the z = 0 surface at a further point, thus fragmenting the aggregate.
