Uses FLACS radiation consequence results to calculate lethality (likelyhood of fatality) Calculates radiation dose and lethality based on location and exposure time Lethality calculation based on «probit» functions for radiation dose exposure

Lethality as function of heat radiation dose 100% 80% 60% 40% 20%
