Also laid in is a very rare surviving copy of DNA NWE Calculation Aids User Bulletin Issue 1-85-1 May 1985. In this issue 6 sheets printed on one side only was a statement of purpose announcement of Cratering & Ground Shock and Blast Programs Obtaining Help General Trends in NWE Calculation Aids Programs Quick Reference Matrix of NWE Calculation Aides and C&GS and Blast Order Form and Description. This is a RARE SURVIVING COPY. The Defense Nuclear Agency DNA now known as the Defense Threat Reduction Agency DTRA developed various tools manuals and aids to calculate the effects of nuclear weapons including blast thermal radiation and fallout. These tools are critical for nuclear safety survivability studies and operational planning. Key Calculation Aids and Tools: Nuclear Bomb Effects Computer Slide Rule: Included with the 1957/1962/1964 editions of The Effects of Nuclear Weapons by Samuel Glasstone and Philip J. Dolan. This circular slide rule developed by the Lovelace Foundation allows for the evaluation of 28 different effects including blast thermal radiation fallout and cratering as a function of yield and range; DOS-Based Weapons Effects Programs 1984: Validated computer simulations and models developed under contract for the Defense Nuclear Agency which are still used in some contexts. DTRA Effects Manual One EM-1: Known as "Capabilities of Nuclear Weapons" this is a foundational multi-chapter manual providing in part validated calculations and data for nuclear effects. These tools cover a range of parameters including air blast overpressure initial radiation thermal dose and crater size. Defense Nuclear Agency unknown

Binding added proceeding soft covers present. Cover has some wear and soiling. Sponsored by the American Nuclear Society in cooperation with the Atomic Energy Commission. Related to the Plowshare program. In structuring the technical presentations contributions of the broadest interest were placed at the beginning thus forming a common base of current information and applied science understanding developed in support of Plowshare technology. Sessions of specialty or pertaining to specific areas of application and engineering follow logically in the program. Name of previous owner Jerry R. Kline present on fep of each volume. This is believed to be the Jerry Kline who served at the Puerto Rico Nuclear Center 1965-68 Argonne National Laboratories 1968-1973 and with the Atomic Energy Commission and as an Administrative Judge on the Atomic Safety and Licensing Board. Edward Teller was a presenter! This proceedings includes 112 papers presented at 15 technical sessions covered all technical aspects of the Plowshare Program. The conference summary reviewed the principal themes areas of significant advance and subjects requiring further attention that emerged during the technical conference. This proceeding is the record of this symposium. At this symposium there were 620 registrations peak attendance in technical sessions was 800 and 28 members of the press attended. There were 16 foreign countries represented and 24 universities. In terms of industrial firms 117 were from the United States and 18 were foreign. The International Atomic Energy Agency participated as did representatives from 5 foreign governments. hardcover
