The Generalized Zacks Model.

Abstract

This paper generalizes the Zacks model for minefield crossings. Zacks computes in his model the probability of the Nth vehicle crossing a minefield and also the distribution of the number of vehicles crossing the field. Zacks' computations are made under the assumptions that all the vehicles are of the same type and only one kind of mine is present in the field. This paper removes both these restrictions. (Author)
