According to literature data, some of the main factors which significantly affect the quality of
the indoor environment in residential households or apartments are human activities such …

Radon is released from soil and building materials and can accumulate in residential
buildings. Breathing radon and radon progeny for extended periods hazardous to health …

Measurement and/or prediction of indoor radon (222 Rn) concentration are important due to
the impact of radon on indoor air quality and consequent inhalation hazard. In recent times …

This paper presents model simulation results of vapor intrusion into structures built atop sites
contaminated with volatile or semivolatile chemicals of concern. A three‐dimensional finite …

A model is developed for calculation of the radon concentration in indoor air. The model
takes into account various important parameters, eg radon concentration in ground, radon …

Details of a three-dimensional finite element model of soil vapor intrusion, including the
overall modeling process and the stepwise approach, are provided. The model is a …

Soil samples, from 70 points uniformly distributed over entire Slovenia, were analysed for
40K, 232Th and 226Ra using gamma spectrometry, and for 234U and 238U using alpha …

Soil radon entry to a house and indoor concentration level are affected by many factors,
such as the infiltration characteristics of the house, air tightness of the substructure of the …

In soil samples collected from 58 points of 7 different lithological units that appear most often
in Slovenia, emanation fraction of 222 Rn and porosity have been determined. Emanation …

Abstract 222 Rn, 220 Rn, and their decay products are significant contributors to background
radiation dose. Their concentration level, pertaining exposure, and consequent dose are …
