Hygienic Standards for Workroom Air

Deriving realistic source boundary conditions for a CFD simulation of concentrations in workroom air.

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is used increasingly to simulate the distribution of airborne contaminants in enclosed spaces for exposure assessment and control, but the importance of realistic boundary conditions is often not fully appreciated. In a workroom for manufacturing capacitors, full-shift samples for isoamyl acetate (IAA) were collected for 3 days at 16 locations, and velocities ...

Does air conditioning impact on hygienic quality of indoor air on seagoing vessels?

BACKGROUND According to observations by occupational health physicians, nearly 50 % of the seamen on German vessels will get diseases of the upper respiratory tract. An impact of the air-conditioning systems on these diseases has been suggested. OBJECTIVES To examine the hygienic quality of indoor air on seagoing vessels, a pilot study was initiated by the See-Berufsgenossenschaft. METHODS ...

Hygienic Macros for ACL2

ACL2 is a theorem prover for a purely functional subset of Common Lisp. It inherits Common Lisp’s unhygienic macros, which are used pervasively to eliminate repeated syntactic patterns. The lack of hygiene means that macros do not automatically protect their producers or consumers from accidental variable capture. This paper demonstrates how this lack of hygiene interferes with theorem proving....
