In military applications, it is important for a platform (warship, aircraft, etc.) or an installation (airbase, etc.) to maintain war-fighting ability after being damaged. In particular if the unit requires electric power, cooling, or other resources to perform its mission, then these resources must be available following a weapon detonation event. The integrated engineering plant (IEP) is responsible for providing these services to the mission-critical loads in a unit. Novel continuity-of-service metrics for IEPs are set forth herein. These metrics provide a means of predicting the average and worst-case level of service the plant can provide as well as the worst-case scenario over a class of disruptions. This provides a method of making meaningful comparisons between different designs. The computation and meaning of the proposed metrics are explored using a notional warship IEP.
