A New M&S Tool to Supplant Decontamination Testing: The Decontamination Efficacy Prediction Model (DEPM)

Abstract : What is the Decontamination Efficacy Prediction Model (DEPM)? *The DEPM is a software tool design to simulate the decontamination of material items. *It provides a "Virtual Chamber" to subject simulated items to the four key phases: ^Contamination, ^Aging, ^Decontamination, ^Residual Hazard.
