An analytical approach to assessing the vulnerability of bomb shelters to aerial bombing and artillery attack

open access: yes, 1993
This study examines the vulnerability of bomb shelters to aerial bombing and artillery attack, by modelling the bomb dump, i.e., the area within which the bomb shelters are located, as a cellular target. The stochastic process of hitting the dump with aerial bombs or artillery shells is modelled using suitable probability distributions, depending on ...
