Popis: This study reviews existing methods for modelling the impact of ionising radiation sources on the human body. Using advanced modelling methods, the main modelling parameters are determined and it is revealed whether anthropometry affects the increase or decrease of the total radiation dose in the conditions of work in radiation-contaminated areas of the nuclear fuel cycle. The most rational and safe approach today is to conduct experimental studies on anthropomorphic mannequins to simulate human exposure using the RANDO phantom model with different geometries of exposure to ionising radiation sources. The considered modelling methods are taken from medicine, nuclear power, economics and labour protection, where they have found their application and continue to be improved. For further research, it is necessary to use other types of models, such as the Event Tree model, SWOT analysis model, Zero Risk model, Correlation and Regression System model, Matrix model, and other computer models and simulations using artificial intelligence. The factors proposed in this article provide a “complete picture” of the factors that occur in real conditions of research, measurements, service, security and physical protection of radiation-hazardous facilities such as tailing ponds of former uranium production.
