  1. 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

  2. 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

  3. VISAC – Truck Bomb

  4. Aerial Attack

  5. Terrorist Attacks Against American Targets Using Car-Bomb Technology

  6. Visual Interactive Site Analysis Code for Facility Vulnerability Analysis

  7. 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

  8. 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)

  9. Current Facilities – Basic Models

  10. Current Facilities – Detailed Models

  11. Midsize Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR)

  12. Reprocessing Plant MBLM Code Aerosol Release Resulting Temperatures and Pressures

  13. Russian Designed Power Reactor

  14. A Detailed Facility

  15. 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

  16. Graphical Presentation of VISAC Output

  17. 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

  18. 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
