Calculation settings
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
Seed for pseudo-random number generator
|
Numeric |
A value of 0 will use a pseudo-random seed in each run, a value > 0 will provide the same results in a repeated run. |
Exposure type
|
ExposureType | The type of exposure considered in the assessment; acute (short term) or chronic (long-term). |
Selected exposure routes
|
SelectedExposureRoutes | Exposure routes included in exposure computation. |
Method for generating occupational exposures
|
ExposureApproachMethod | Method for generating occupational exposures (modelled or measured). |
Method for generating occupational exposures
|
OccupationalExposureModelType | Method for generating occupational exposures (based on a specified percentile or distribution). |
Select a percentage (with corresponding percentile)
|
Numeric |
Select a percentage (with corresponding percentile). Note, percentages may very within occupational task exposures. A warning is thrown when the selected percentage is not available for a specific the task exposure. |
Compute external doses
|
Boolean |
