KWIK: An Algorithm for Calculating Munition Expenditures for Smoke Screening/Obscuration in Tactical Situations.
Abstract
KWIK, an algorithm for calculating munition expenditures for smoke screening/obscuration in tactical situations, is described. Nine basic meteorological inputs plus fundamental definitions of meteorological optics and Gaussian diffusion theory are utilized in the approach. A flowchart of the algorithm is also given with the software program listing in FORTRAN, BASIC, and HPL programming languages. (Author)
