Abstract
As part of the development of methodology to assess the lethality of small arms and fragments, a Matlab-function has been developed to present results from simulations done in Aval in the form of vulnerability zones on a standing or running soldier target en face. These vulnerability zones are modelled after the IPSC metric target. The function has been used on results from the project "Preparatory work for procurement of new firearm". The Matlab-function has been implemented into the existing analysis routine and presents the averaged incapacitation probability for each zone in the IPSC metric target.
