In order to use environmental models effectively for management and decision-making, it is
vital to establish an appropriate level of confidence in their performance. This paper reviews …

This paper reviews recent findings in the field of flow and pollutant dispersion modelling
around buildings and within complex urban geometries. Complexity is not only associated to …

Flow and dispersion of traffic-emitted pollutants were studied in a generic urban
neighborhood for various avenue-tree layouts by employing 3D steady RANS simulations …

Precise and timely assessments of the environmental benefits of urban ventilation corridors
are important for understanding urban sustainability. Previous studies have mainly focused …

This study explores the buoyancy effect on traffic pollutant dispersion at neighborhood scale,
in which a wide range of wind-buoyancy ratios is examined. Pollutant dispersion is solved …

Breathability in dense building arrays with packing densities similar to those of typical
European cities is investigated using laboratory measurements and numerical simulations …

In the present paper we have analysed experimentally (wind tunnel) and numerically (CFD)
the impact of some morphological parameters on the flow within and above the urban …

With the continuous development of global urbanization, the urban heat island effect has
increasingly become one of the important factors that reduces the quality of urban life …

Street canyons are ubiquitous in urban areas. Traffic-related air pollutants in street canyons
can adversely affect human health. In this study, an urban-scale traffic pollution dispersion …

Purpose The conventional textile dyeing process requires various operational
characteristics, and determining the most reliable factor in dyeing performance has always …
