CSSANE, A Code for System Survivability Analysis - Nuclear Effects

Abstract

A computer code has been written in the FORTRAN EXTENDED language to determine aerospace system survivability to selected nuclear effects. A special case of survivability is treated in which system survival is based on a comparison of the sure-kill vulnerability level and the computed free field nuclear effects levels. The code consists of two functional parts. One part is the guiding program which conducts the survivability study; the other part consists of individual subroutines which evaluate free field nuclear environment levels. Subroutines have been included to evaluate the blast and thermal environments.
