In the first tutorial, you will learn how to estimate the SEU rate
of a memory chip in a satellite, in the following steps:
Defining the orbit of the satellite;
Selecting the radiation environment models appropriate for this orbit;
Setting the radiation shielding layers covering the device;
Calculating the SEU rate of the memory chip using the simple IRPP model;
In the second tutorial, you will learn how to estimate the total
ionizing dose (TID) a device is exposed to during the entire mission.
This differs from the SEU calculation in the following steps:
Selecting the statistical fluence model of solar energetic protons;
Calculating the dose-depth curve into the shielding material;
