Digital simulation of two models of the biological disposition of inhaled plutonium

Two mathematical models which describe the retention and translocation of inhaled plutonium were simulated on BNW's minicomputer system MINERVA. Equation parameters are obtained by matching the simulation to data gathered by several studies at BNW. Interactive graphics techniques are described which facilitate the data fitting process. This document is meant to serve as a progress report on a continuing effort towards development of mathematical models to describe the disposition of inhaled plutonium. The tabular and graphical results found in the appendices of this report do not represent what we feel are the best possible data fits but only samples of output available from the model. At this time we feel that additional model development will probably be required to best fit the data
