Flow and dispersion of traffic-emitted pollutants were studied in a generic urban neighborhood for various avenue-tree layouts by employing 3D steady RANS simulations with the realizable k-ε turbulence model. In comparison to the tree-free situation quantitative and qualitative changes with flow reversal in the wind field were observed. Low to moderate increases (<13.2%) in the neighborhood-ave...

This paper solves analytically and illustrates numerically the full-vector, electromagnetic inverse source problem of synthesizing an unknown source embedded in a given substrate medium of volume V and radiating a prescribed exterior field. The derived formulation and results generalize previous work on the scalar version of the problem, especially the recent “Part I” paper [A.J. Devaney, E.A. ...

We explored the performance of the Fagerström Test for Nicotine Dependence (FTND) in a sample of 1378 daily smokers and 1058 ex-smokers who participated in a survey study of the Netherlands Twin Register. FTND scores were higher for smokers than for ex-smokers. Nicotine dependence level was not associated with age. FTND score was highly correlated with the maximum number of cigarettes smoked (e...
