Modeling and Simulation

ECBC's Modeling, Simulation and Analysis team manipulates first principle and empirical physics models to realistically portray a chemical/biological threat environment and predict the ability of protective equipment to perform under varying conditions. Simulation tools are applied to assist customers in problem solving, drive system design parameters to optimize performance, assess chemical/biological scenario probable outcomes or validate and verify chemical/biological field models.

Continuing Modeling Efforts

Staff is working to design systems capable of modeling hazards in a variety of scenarios including:

• Counterforce
• Passive defense
• Accident and/or incidents
• High altitude releases
• Urban nuclear, biological or chemical environments
• Building interiors
• Human performance degradation
