(Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicles Test Cycle) conventional cycle: specific emissions limit, for private cars, is nowadays set at 95 g of CO2/km in some parts of the world, including the European Union; a progressive percentage reduction is expected in next seven years: a 15 % reduction ...
Six air pollutants (sulfur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, carbon monoxide, ozone, PM10and PM2.5) are measured at 6 locations using medium-cost, small-weight and compact-size Vaisala AQT420 air quality sensors21. Proprietary intelligent algorithms are incorporated to compensate for the impact of ambient...
focus on the concepts of production, growth, innovation, and the forces that ultimately limit these productive processes. In contrast, on the other half of the equation, the by-products of these productive processes (that is, the consequences of waste) have largely been overlooked. This work fi...

Is Local Air Quality Management a Successful Strategy in Achieving Selected European Union (EU) Limit Values PM10 and NO2? 1. BackgroundThe UK Government has failed to meet 2005 EU air quality limit values for particulate matter (PM10) and looks set to breach 2010 limit values ... JH Barne...
Instead, low molecular weight organic compounds present in human and animal excrements are proposed as ubiquitous biomarkers of faecal contamination. The use of these specific biomarkers such as faecal sterols (5β−stanols), and bile acids has been proposed to verify the presence of faecal ...
for example, aircraft traveling against that wind will use more energy, so we may limit the number of passengers in each aircraft, reducing weight and saving energy. Things such as wind make air travel a large scale multifactorial optimization problem that is not needed for Uber’s ...
Some people advise to limit the number of bikes and cars. This can decrease the traffic flow. But on the other haad, this will affect the consumption and make buses more crowded. In my opinion, the number of private cars should be put under control. And at the same time, buses should...
The greedy triangulation orders all pairs of nodes by route distance and connects them stepwise as the crow flies. A link is added only if it does not cross an existing link. This triangulation is a\(O(N\log N)\)computable proxy for the NP-hard minimum weight triangulation45with an appro...
The increasing urbanization in the last decades results in significant growth in urban traffic congestion around the world. This leads to enormous time people spent on roads and thus significant money waste and air pollution. Here, we present a novel met
