Evaluate critical systemic dependencies across municipal water pumping, physical cash liquidity, internal combustion transport (ECUs), and food distribution channels during a 30-day disappearance of modern digital infrastructure.
| Outage Horizon | Primary Sector | Direct Consequence | Status in Simulation |
|---|---|---|---|
| Day 0 - Hour 1 | Avionics & Traffic | ECUs, signal grids, and modern fly-by-wire aviation systems lose computational telemetry. | Immediate Freeze |
| Day 1 | Banking & Transactions | ATM switch networks and POS credit rails disconnect; economy defaults strictly to physical pocket cash. | Complete Freeze |
| Day 2 - 3 | Grocery & Water Pumping | Municipal diesel backups burn out; high-rise water pressure drops to zero; store shelves empty. | Critical Depletion |
| Day 7 - 14 | Sanitation & Medical | Sewage pumping overflows without grid power; cold-chain insulin and pharmaceuticals spoil. | High Vulnerability |
| Day 30 | Systemic Restoration | Cold-start grid restart required; supply line reconstitution takes months. | Reconstitution Phase |
