Derakhshani, S.M. (author), Schott, D.L. (author), Lodewijks, G. (author)Dust emissions can have significant effects on the human health, environment and industry equipment. Understanding the dust generation process helps to select a suitable dust preventing approach and also is useful to evaluate the environmental impact of dust emission. To describe these processes, numerical methods such as Computational Fluid...conference paper 2013

Ambarwati, L. (author), Verhaeghe, R.J. (author), Pel, A.J. (author), van Arem, B. (author)Diverse effective strategies have been designed to minimize the phenomenon of urban sprawl. Previous research focused on the link between spatial and transport development strategies to achieve this goal, with the intention of increasing mobility, reducing commuting time and travel costs. However, a side effect of urban sprawl is an increase of...conference paper 2014

Barbu, A.L. (author)The atmosphere is a complex system which includes physical, chemical and biological processes. Many of these processes affecting the atmosphere are subject to various interactions and can be highly nonlinear. This complexity makes it necessary to apply computer models in order to understand the natural behavior of the atmosphere. In addition to...doctoral thesis 2010

Almeida-Silva, M.A. (author)This Thesis focuses on the estimation of the human exposure to air pollutants, and gives special attention to one of the most susceptible groups in the general population - elders. To fulfil the goal the work was conducted following the risk assessment paradigm and, consequently, was divided into 5 tasks: 1) characterization of the indoor air...doctoral thesis 2016

De Baas, A.F. (author)The Langevin Equation is used to describe dispersion of pollutants in the atmosphere. The theoretical background for the equation is discussed in length and a review on previous treatments and applications is given. It is shown that the Langevin equation can describe dispersion in complex circumstances. In particular the equation is applied to...doctoral thesis 1988

Domingos de Azevedo Quadros, F. (author)Global passenger air traffic has doubled in the 13 years prior to 2019, and is expected to double again over the next 20 years or so. Growing demand for aviation is met by a corresponding increase in jet fuel being burned by aircraft, releasing multiple pollutants into the atmosphere. Besides disturbing the Earth’s radiative balance, these...doctoral thesis 2024

Wolterbeek, B. (author), Sarmento, S. (author), Verburg, T. (author)The present paper focuses on biomonitoring of elemental atmospheric pollution, which is reviewed in terms of larger-scaled biomonitoring surveys in an epidemiological context. Based on the literature information, today’s availability of solar-powered small air filter samplers and fibrous ion exchange materials is regarded as adequate or an even...journal article 2010

Lu, S. (author), Lin, X. (author), Heemink, A.W. (author), Fu, G. (author), Segers, A.J. (author)Volcanic ash forecasting is a crucial tool in hazard assessment and operational volcano monitoring. Emission parameters such as plume height, total emission mass, and vertical distribution of the emission plume rate are essential and important in the implementation of volcanic ash models. Therefore, estimation of emission parameters using...journal article 2015

Vleugel, J (author), Bal, Frans (author)Modern societies rely on mass mobility, in particular by private car. Car numbers are growing worldwide due to economic and other factors. Nearly, all have engines that run on fossil fuels. Use of fossil fuels contributes to climate change (via CO <sub>2</sub>-emissions) and local air pollution (primary NO <sub>x</sub>- and PM <sub>10</sub>...journal article 2019
