ON A DAMAGE MODEL FOR BOMB ATTACKS UNDER CONSIDERATION OF OVERLAPPINGS,

reportActive / Technical Report | Accession Number: AD0429530 | Need Help?

Abstract:

The expected damage caused by bomb attacks on large areas is represented as a double integral for any geometrical shape and size of the target under mathematically rigorous consideration of 1 overlappings, 2 the fact that the damage done to a target point is a monotonically decreasing function of the distance explosion-target point, 3 density weight function, and 4 hardening.
