1 This document details the SANS data fitting models available within the FRILLS package in the SANDrA program available on the VMS computer system at ISIS. The models very much reflect the scientific interests of the author and are therefore not designed to be comprehensive. If you are seeking alternative, or perhaps more sophisticated implementations of some of these models, you are strongly encouraged to investigate the FISH program described elsewhere. Though many of these models are relatively straightforward to program, or simulate in a spreadsheet, there is also a nice Java-based online simulation package at Whilst every reasonable care has been exercised in the coding of SANDrA and the models, the author cannot accept responsibility for any loss, damage or other consequences arising from their use.
