RADIOLOGICAL RECOVERY REQUIREMENTS, STRUCTURES AND OPERATIONS RESEARCH. VOLUME II: DAMAGED PF MULTIPLIER.
Abstract
The document contains the theoretical development and a demonstration of a damaged protection factor multiplier. A multiplier of the form e raised to the power (Beta sub 0 + Beta(sub 1)X(sub 1) + ... + Beta(sub n)X(sub n)) is prepared for multiplying the undamaged protection factor to obtain an estimate of the protection factor after structural damage. The X sub i represent such factors as loss of exterior wall mass, ingress of fallout, loss of interior partitions, etc. The variables selected offer promise of explaining a large fraction of the change in protection factor caused by damage to a structure. Methods of testing the model are presented. (Author)
