during the recent decades, rapid urbanization growth has led to even faster growth of motorvehicles and especially in large cities. hence, evaluation of the actual level of traffic emissions has gained more interest. this paper, for the first time, presents a bottom-up approach for evaluation of vehicular emissions in tehran- the capital of iran- using the international vehicle emission (ive) m...

Air pollution is one of the major threats to environment in the present time. Increase in degree of urbanization is a major cause of this air pollution. Due to urbanization, vehicular activities are continuously increasing at a tremendous rate. Mobile or vehicular pollution is predominantly degrading the air quality worldwide. Thus, air quality management is necessary for dealing with this seve...

Vehicular air pollution affects both urban and town air quality all around the world. Air quality in many developing countries is deteriorating according to (WHO/UNEP 1992) report because these countries lack the resources to invest in emission control. Global air pollution problems have captured public attention, because of stratospheric ozone depletion and global warming. In response to globa...

Three dimensional simulations are carried out to estimate the effect of wind direction, wind speed and geometry on the flow and dispersion of vehicular pollutant in a street canyon. The pollutant sources are motor vehicles passing between the two buildings. Suitable emission factors for petrol and diesel vehicles at varying vehicle speed are used for the estimation of the rate of emission from ...

Exhaust emissions contribute greatly to air pollution, the social cost of which may occur as danger to human health, attracting huge medical expenses, causing absenteeism and hence loss of productivity. These are incentives to reduce exhaust emissions to the barest minimum. Two major cities in Ghana, Accra and Kumasi, are struck by vehicular traffic jams especially during rush-hours and are gra...

Vehicular emissions in China in 2006 and 2010 were calculated at a high spatial resolution based on the data released by the National Bureau of Statistics, by taking the emission standards into consideration. China's vehicular emissions of carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen oxides (NOx), volatile organic compounds (VOCs), ammonia (NH3), fine particulate matters (PM2.5), inhalable particulate matter...

nowadays, the environmental impact of transportation project and, especially air pollution impacts, are major concerns in evaluating transportation projects. based on this concern, beside definition of traditional objective functions like total travel time and total investment cost, different type of environmental related function is considered as objective function in urban network design. in ...

In India, the ambient air quality has been degrading from past few decades especially in urban areas. Vehicular emissions are amongst one of major reasons for deterioration such This article is an effort to review vehicular emission standards countries (USA, Europe, Japan and Australia) compare with Indian standards. However, there exists several differences present followed by different countr...
