Accurately model EO/IR laser propagation and transient thermal effects in contested environments
Simulating Laser Energy in MuSES
MuSES can accurately incorporate laser illumination effects in EO/IR sensor renderings. User-specified laser wavelength, source power, beam half angle, and propagation range are used to simulate reflected laser energy via a Gaussian beam profile with atmospheric attenuation. Applications include assessment of covert laser illumination targeting, development of multispectral sensors, and ISR (intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance) mission evaluation.
Directed Energy Counter-Drone Simulation
Directed energy weapons are being used to counter aerial threats including drones, mortars, artillery, and missiles. MuSES can simulate the thermal impact of high-energy lasers (HEL) systems including both transient laser-induced heating and aerodynamic convection effects. MuSES can also simulate land, sea and air targets in any weather condition to evaluate system performance.
Thermal Damage and Thermal Protection
MuSES enables rapid simulation of directed energy impacts on different components including batteries, fuel tanks, electronics, motors, and external and internal structures. Battery packs can be integrated with 3D detail to predict thermal runaway via cell-to-cell failure propagation. MuSES can also be used to design and evaluate thermal protection strategies to counter directed energy weapons.
Areas of Expertise
Industry-Leading Signature Management
MuSESTM (Multi-Service Electro-Optic Signature) is an industry-leading signature management software that provides complete thermal modeling and infrared signature prediction capabilities. MuSESTM allows you to simulate any environment or condition and generate accurate EO/IR signature predictions. It provides many powerful features allowing you to model vehicles, aircraft plumes, ship wakes, humans, atmospheric effects, and more.
ThermoAnalytics has supported the defense industry for over two decades with expertise, software, and engineering services.
As the global leader in EO/IR simulation, we provide low observables design and the technology to virtually assess target-background contrast anywhere on earth. Electro-optics and infrared signature are extensively employed for target acquisition and guidance systems. However, the target itself is only part of the radiance solution; our technologies include the effectiveness of background source radiance, solar loads, even diffuse sky radiance. By developing software-based in physics, we bring EO/IR reality into focus.
Producing large datasets of accurate, photorealistic EO/IR images for training, machine learning, signature management optimization, testing, & evaluation. ThermoAnalytics develops physics-based radiometric MuSESTM models and generates 2D and 3D EO/IR datasets with sensor-specific characteristics.
