A further comparison of deterministic and stochastic Lanchester-type combat models

Approved for public release, distribution is unlimited. === This thesis examines the differences of deterministic and stochastic LANCHESTER-type combat models. Using an example of square-law attrition, solution methods and solutions are described. A new analytic solution for equal attrition rate c...

Lindsay, George F. Naval Postgraduate School Department of Operations Research Approved for public release, distribution is unlimited. This thesis examines the differences of deterministic and stochastic LANCHESTER-type combat models. Using an example of square-law attrition, solution methods and solutions are described. A new analytic solution for equal attrition rate coefficients is given. The numerical comparison includes hypothesis about the expected force levels and the variability in the expected force levels as a function of time, initial force levels, and breakpoint force levels. 2012-11-16T21:01:07Z 2012-11-16T21:01:07Z 1980-09 Thesis http://hdl.handle.net/10945/18967 en_US This publication is a work of the U.S. Government as defined in Title 17, United States Code, Section 101.
