Input Manual for the Army Unit Resiliency Analysis (AURA) Methodology.
Abstract
The purpose of this report is quite limited, viz., to provide a concise compendium of input commands and formats for the Army Unit Resiliency Analysis (AURA) computer code. Therefore, only a brief description of command functions is given with each entry. The command descriptions are grouped by function: the major groupings are Execution, General Runstream Information, Names, Asset Inputs, Deployment Inputs, Weapon Inputs, Weapon Effects Inputs, Unit Function Inputs and Program Controls. Within the general groupings, over 100 commands and options are described which are available to the AURA user. In addition, an appendix is provided which gives detailed descriptions of weapon effects files. A final appendix describes the AURA asset allocation algorithm. This manual is the first step in a project to develop user-friendly documentation, interactive graphic programs, data bases, data base networks and expert systems to aid the AURA analyst. The goal of these efforts is to make it possible for one-sided unit-level analyses to be made quickly, easily and uniformly throughout the diverse Army analyses community, using the most current data and algorithms available from the various proponent agencies. Originator-supplied keywords: AURA; Resiliency; Combat Models; Unit; Reconstitution; Optimization; Lethality Models; Integrated Battlefield; Chemical; and Nuclear.
