In an August 1991 BRL Memorandum Report (BRL-MR-3930) [1], Dr. James Walbert proposed a novel approach for modeling ballistic shock effects in vulnerability/lethality analyses.
It was argued that this approach could be used to increase the knowledge base of the effects of shock in both structural response computation and vulnerability/lethality analyses.

 Was BRL-CAD the tool I was looking for? | Free Software Magazine
But I’m starting to think I gave really short shrift to the US Army Research Lab’s BRL-CAD, which has recently released a new version (7.8.0) with support for Windows and a number of user interface and modeling tool improvements.
Given these facts, I was quick to dismiss BRL-CAD as incapable of representing a large amount of modern CAD data, and therefore somewhat questionable as a common interchange tool.
I’d love to hear from anyone advocating BREP as to whether CSG is really a problem, as well as on the subject of integrating BRL-CAD models with other types of CAD and 3D models (Nurbana looks like an interesting lead, though there isn’t much written about it).
