AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
A proper modeling of flow and turbulence within and over urban canopies is key to properly predict air pollution and dispersion in cities. Trees are an integral part of the urban landscape. In many suburban neighborhoods, tree cover is 10 to 30% and trees ...
Climate change can exacerbate future regional air pollution events by making conditions more favorable to form high levels of ozone. In this study, we use spectral nudging with the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model to downscale NASA earth system ...
The authors report here the 1st solid-state, NIR-selective electrochromic devices. Crit. to device performance is the arrangement of nanocrystal-derived electrodes into heteromaterial frameworks, where hierarchically porous ITO nanocrystal active layers ar ...
Regional air quality models are widely used to evaluate control strategy effectiveness. As such, it is important to understand the accuracy of model simulations to establish confidence in model performance and to guide further model development. Particulat ...
“Well-mixed” assumption often leads to inadequate prediction of the human exposure. In spaces that operate with a low air velocity, local airflows generated by occupants play predominant role for pollutant transport. The present study investigates the abil ...
Air pollution is one of the key indicators for quality of life in urban environments, and is also the subject of global health concern, given the number of mortal diseases associated to exposure to pollutants. Assessing and monitoring air quality is an imp ...
Aerosol assisted CVD (AACVD) is a self-catalyzed method that allows for growing single crystalline metal oxide nanowires at moderate temperatures (i.e. up to 380C). This is employed here to grow either Pt or Au-decorated tungsten oxide nanowires directly o ...
Bottom chute aerators are installed to prevent cavitation damages and they have been studied in detail on smooth spillways. In parallel, stepped spillways became widespread in the past decades. Research has shown that stepped spillways may be endangered ev ...
The California Research at the Nexus of Air Quality and Climate Change (CalNex) field study was conducted throughout California in May, June, and July of 2010. The study was organized to address issues simultaneously relevant to atmospheric pollution and c ...
This study investigates the ability of the human convective boundary layer to transport pollution in a quiescent indoor environment. The impact of the source location in the vicinity of a human body is examined in relation to pollution distribution in the ...
