A user interface for rapid underwater explosion threat assessment / Mark Riley. : D68-6/131-2011E-PDF

"This report describes a new software tool, UNDEX Zones, which has been developed for rapid, simplified assessment of damage to surface ships from underwater explosion (UNDEX) threats. Damage is determined using shock severity, as measured by the shock factor (SF), which has been found to be correlated with historical data on the level of damage sustained by a vessel. UNDEX Zones graphically displays damage zones for a range of charge sizes and charge depths for a given explosive type and ship draft. The damage zones include no damage, varying levels of non-lethal disabling damage, and lethal damage. The present document provides the background theories that were used in the development as well as the functionality and operating procedures of UNDEX Zones"--Abstract, page i.
