The purpose of the Institutional Computing Urban EMP project is to simulate NUDET (nuclear detonation) in an urban environment, and determine what forensic information can be obtained from the resulting EMP (electromagnetic pulse) produced by the detonation. The effect of EMP on telecommunications and power infrastructure is also being studied.
