Description
OMERE and FASTRAD© are being developed and distributed by TRAD for more than 15 years now. OMERE is a freeware that allows to define the radiation environment for a space mission, from particle fluxes to dose-depth curve (TID, TNID) and SEE rates. Concerning the Earth’s radiation belts, several engineering models are available, including the AE9/AP9 models. FASTRAD© is a 3D CAD tool for the radiation analysis (TID, TNID) at component and material level. Both Ray-Tracing and Monte Carlo (FMC, RMC) methods are available allowing to perform a precise analysis and, in combination with post-processing tools, optimise design to mitigate against radiation risk. OMERE and FASTRAD© have been developed in a compatible way: OMERE outputs can be directly used in FASTRAD© and vice-versa.
This presentation will focus on the lessons learned during all these years working with the users of both software. The process for integrating a new environment model in OMERE will be presented and the compatibility with the radiation analysis at FASTRAD© level will be discussed.
