Hello
the energy threshold for DPA has to be provided by the user. There are
useful compilations for various materials in
* R.E.MacFarlane et al, Nucl. Data Sheets 111, 2739 (2010) (Table 2) *
* A.Yu.Konobeyev et al, Nucl. Energy and Tech. 3, 169 (2017) (Table 4) *
* NEA Report Nuclear SCience NEA/NSC/DOC(2015)9 (Table 2.4)
For neutrons below 20 MeV, DPAs evaluation is based on the KERMA factors
calculated by the NJOY code from neutron reaction databases.
To plot DPA along the shield, insert a USERBIN structure, like the one you
have dor "dose110", that covers and segments your shield, asking for
DPA-SCO as quantity.
Hope this helps
Paola
..try to find values for materials similar to the one you are intersterd
in (looks like concrete)
