​VRAKA-CWA

The VRAKA-CWA Model is a probabilistic and comprehensive tool for risk assessment adapted from VRAKA methodology (originally designed for Ship wrecks) for Unexploded Ordnances (UXO) and Chemical Warfare Agents (CWA) within the DAIMON project.

It is a statistical approach that considers the interactions between parameters of the physical environment, the ammunition object, human activities and natural events. These interactions are described as statistical distributions that, to say it in a simple way, show the probability that one parameter affects the other.

By specifying the conditions for the ammunition object, the representation of the interactions can be narrowed down to the probability that an object is likely to be affected in such a way that it is damaged or deteriorated and the charge, being either CWA, Explosive substances or any of it‘s byproducts are released in the water column.

This method was developed by Chalmers University, Sweden.
