QUIC Transport and Dispersion Modeling of Vehicle Emissions in Cities for Better Public Health Assessments
The Quick Urban and Industrial Complex (QUIC) plume modeling system is used to explore how the transport and dispersion of vehicle emissions in cities are impacted by the presence of buildings. Using downtown Philadelphia as a test case, notional vehicle emissions of gases and particles are specified as line source releases on a subset of the east-west and north-south streets. Cases were run in...
متن کاملdevelopment and implementation of an optimized control strategy for induction machine in an electric vehicle
in the area of automotive engineering there is a tendency to more electrification of power train. in this work control of an induction machine for the application of electric vehicle is investigated. through the changing operating point of the machine, adapting the rotor magnetization current seems to be useful to increase the machines efficiency. in the literature there are many approaches wh...
15 صفحه اولVehicle emissions and PM2.5 mass concentrations in six Brazilian cities
In Brazil, the principal source of air pollution is the combustion of fuels (ethanol, gasohol, and diesel). In this study, we quantify the contributions that vehicle emissions make to the urban fine particulate matter (PM(2.5)) mass in six state capitals in Brazil, collecting data for use in a larger project evaluating the impact of air pollution on human health. From winter 2007 to winter 2008...
متن کاملTowards a Better Understanding and Behavior Recognition of Inhabitants in Smart Cities. A Public Transport Case
The idea of modern urban systems and smart cities requires monitoring and careful analysis of different signals. Such signals can originate from different sources and one of the most promising is the BTS, i.e. base transceiver station, an element of mobile carrier networks. This paper presents the fundamental problems of elicitation, classification and understanding of such signals so as to dev...
متن کاملHealth Effects of Vehicle Emissions
All over the world concern is growing over the health effects of emissions from internal combustion engines in the transport fleet. Studies conducted using air pollution exposure information and various health indicators, such as hospital admissions, are invariably showing up real and dramatic effects. Some work carried out in Australia and New Zealand has confirmed that a similar level of heal...
