Synthetik is delighted to announce the development of blastFoam | CityScape - a terrorism insurance modeling platform that leverages Synthetik’s physics-based computational fluid dynamics (CFD) blastFoam solver.

The employment of physics-based methods such as Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) to calculate airblast loads in urban environments is very much the current state-of-the-art. The approach explicitly models: 1) the detonation of the explosive material, 2) the expansion of the detonation products, 3) the development and propagation of a shock front in air, and 4) the reflections and dissipation of that shock front within the urban landscape. This has clear benefits over empirical, semi-empirical and closed form solutions, in that each calculation can account for the unique geometric conditions present within the computational domain.

blastFoam | CityScape is continually validated by our in-house team to ensure assumptions, processes and outputs remain: 1) accurate, 2) credible, and 3) contemporary. The key takeaways from the validation work are as follows:

1. The underlying calculation engine has been Validated by U.S. DOD and DHS testing (at full-scale), with publications in peer-reviewed journals (the U.S. government also funded these studies).
2. The validation work demonstrates excellent agreement between modelling and field test results.
3. blastFoam is used and validated by international governments (e.g., US, UK, and Canada).
