  The dynamics of fission has been studied by solving Euler-Lagrange equation
with dissipation generated through one and two body nuclear friction. The
average kinetic energies of the fission fragments, prescission neutron
multiplicities and the mean energies of the prescission neutrons have been
calculated and compared with experimental values and they agree quite well. A
single value of friction coefficient has been used to reproduce the
experimental data for both symmetric and asymmetric splitting of the fissioning
systems over a wide range of masses and excitation energies. It has been
observed that a stronger friction is required in the saddle to scission region
as compared to that in the ground state to saddle region.
