LoginIn this study we evaluated the diffusion of nitrous oxide in a few operating rooms, using spatial data modelling techniques, in order to assess hospital staff exposure and to promote risk management.
Bibliographic database Airbase
AIRBASE is the Bibliographic Database of the AIVC. It contains publications and abstracts of articles related to energy efficient ventilation. Where possible, sufficient detail is supplied in the bibliographic details for users to trace and order the material via their own libraries. Topics include: ventilation strategies, design and retrofit methods, calculation techniques, standards and regulations, measurement methods, indoor air quality and energy implications etc. Entries are based on articles and reports published in journals, internal publications and research reports, produced both by university departments and by building research institutions throughout the world. AIRBASE has grown and evolved over many years (1979 to present day, over 22000 references and 16000 documents available online). For most of the references, the full document is also available online.
Access to the publications is free of charge.
To investigate the dispersion of aerosols in an airflow, a test facility was build at the HermannRietschel- Institute.
The airborne transmission of disease is a constant threat and while diseases such as Tuberculosis were considered all but extinct in the western world, the resurgence of it demonstrates that the spread of these diseases has to be taken very seriou
This study examines the influence of ventilation on chemical reactions among indoor pollutants. We have used a one compartment mass balance model to simulate unimolecular and bimolecular reactions occurring indoors.
The aim was to develop a multiple logistic regression model to identify multi-family houses with an increase of sick building syndrome (SBS).
The present paper refers to the numerical prediction of air velocities and temperatures inside single-sided naturally ventilated buildings and more specifically the special case in which air from the external environment is brought into the buildi
No more will weatherization crews find their hands tied when they see opportunities for energy savings in every corner-the Weatherization Plus plan will open the door to bring home advanced technologies.
Maior problems exist with the way some attic insulations are manufactured, labeled, and installed.
In the confusing world of insulation materials, telling the difference between fraudulent claims and the real thing is not easy.
The main barriers to choosing high-efficiency windows are lack of product awareness and cost considerations. As a result, residential construction professionals play a key role in promoting wise window choices to their clients.
From 1953 to 1975, some half a million high-rise flats were constructed in the UK in response to the need at that time for the rapid provision of substantial numbers of affordable dwellings.
In Sweden, the activity on building new residences has been decreased for a number of years. The building stock as an average has therefore become older and in the future it will be subject for refurbishment.
