Humankind mimics the processes and strategies that nature has perfected and uses them as
a model to address its problems. This has led to a new communication technology …

Experimental investigations using wind and water tunnels have long been a staple in fluid
mechanics research. These experiments often choose a specific physical process to be …

The scalar dispersion of a ground-level point-source plume in a smooth-wall turbulent
boundary layer is experimentally investigated using simultaneous particle image velocimetry …

This study evaluates a surrogate modeling approach that provides rapid ensemble
predictions of air pollutant dispersion in urban environments for varying meteorological …

Time-resolved wind tunnel experiments are performed for three periodic street canyon
configurations: one of uniform (H/W= 1) and two of variable building height (consisting of …

To evaluate AERMOD for predicting livestock odour dispersion in the Canadian climate and
flat terrain, 22 odour plumes were measured around a broiler barn for two days with distinct …

This study demonstrates the ability of large-eddy simulation (LES) forced by a large-scale
model to reproduce plume dispersion in an actual field campaign. Our aim is to bring …

The presence of vegetation within urban canyons leads to non-trivial patterns of the
concentration of airborne pollutants, as a result of the complex structure of the velocity field …

Regarding air quality, odours have been repeatedly ranked as the number one reason for
public complaints to authorities. The most widely used method for assessing odour impacts …

The understanding of the mechanics of turbulent dispersion is of primary importance in
estimating the effects of mixing processes involved in a variety of events playing a significant …
