Facility Vulnerability Analysis • Objectives • Predict the Response of a Facility to Attack by Military or Terrorist Weapons • Develop Response Models for use as Targeting Aids • Program Started in 1995 • Primary Sponsor DTRA • Other Current Sponsors: • DIA • NRC
Visual Interactive Site Analysis CodeVISAC Integrates the Following Functions in one Code • Facility Kill Probability • Facility Core Melt Probability • Facility Downtime Estimates • Facility Model Editor • Event/Fault Tree Editor • Provides: • Facility Damage/Consequence Contour Maps • VERY FAST “what if”Analysis for Various Accident/Incident Scenarios

Visual Interactive Site Analysis Code for Facility Vulnerability Analysis
User Describes Attack (Incidents) • Defined Accident – specific systems fail • Component Damage – individual components fail with specified probabilities • Region Damage – all components in an area fail • Quick Blast – place any size charge, weapon, truck bomb, etc. inside or outside of a building using TNT, C4,, etc. • Multiple incidents can be specified with any combination or timing
Facility Models – Basic and Detailed • Geometry • Based on BRL-CAD format • Facilities consist of buildings made of concrete walls • Critical components inside or outside buildings • Logic • Critical components grouped together into fault trees for each system • Event trees group together the systems and evaluate consequences • Multiple aspects can be examined at once (facility kill, core damage, fire, etc)

VISAC Output • Consequence probabilities for each event tree • Failure probabilities for each fault tree system • Facility downtime estimate • Release information (for HPAC) • Lists of walls broken and hole size estimates An Example • 3500 lbs TNT truck bomb outside of control room • 97.7% probability of a large early release • Facility would be unable to operate for 4 months
Grids of Blast Points – Threat Contours • Each library facility has 3 pre-calculated grids • User can search grids for specific outcomes • User can generate new grids for his own plants • Grid points can be used as incidents (attack points) • VISAC has automated grid creation for new plants
Three Ways To Use VISAC • View library facilities and their pre-calculated grids of blast points • use viewers to explore the geometry and logic • search grids for specific outcomes • Run “what-if” scenarios using different attacks on the library facilities • accidents, component damage, bomb blasts • find release probabilities, facility kill & downtime • Create a new facility based on the library model and add new buildings • model any aspect of facility operation • calculate grids of blast points • use just like a library facility
