The 1st EuNetAir Air Quality Joint Intercomparison Exercise organized in Aveiro (Portugal) from 13th–27th October 2014, focused on the evaluation and assessment of environmental gas, particulate matter (PM) meteorological microsensors, versus standard air quality reference methods through an experimental urban monitoring campaign. IDAD-Institute Environment Development Mobile Laboratory was placed at traffic location city centre to conduct continuous measurements with equipment analysers for...
There are many existing buildings for which seismic rehabilitation interventions required, especially in earthquake-prone areas like Italy. At the same time, huge energy cost increase Europe highlights need sustainable techniques that able to efficiency of buildings. These issues even more significant weak social groups living housing buildings, often poor and vulnerable conditions. In order address solution regarding building renovations from social, structural, perspectives, framework...
A sensors network based on 11 nodes (10 stationary and 1 mobile mounted public bus) distributed in Bari (Italy) has been deployed for urban air quality (AQ) monitoring. The low-cost sensor-systems have installed specific sites (buildings, offices, schools, streets, port, airport) to enhance environmental awareness of the citizens supplement expensive official monitoring stations with cost-effective sensor-nodes at high spatial temporal resolution. Continuous measurements were performed by...
This paper gives a short technical report on preliminary real-world measurements by low-cost gas sensor-systems for air quality monitoring. Measurements were performed electrochemical sensors (CO, NO2, O3, SO2), optical particle counter/detector (PM1.0, PM2.5, PM10), NDIR infrared sensor (CO2), photo-ionisation detector (total VOCs), including miniaturized meteorological parameters (temperature, relative humidity). The are running and installed in the city to assess performance during...
The air quality in modern cities and urban areas is strongly affected by chemical pollutants such as toxic gases, volatile organic compounds, particulate matter. They are monitored governmental agencies using regulatory monitoring stations, which highly accurate, but also very expensive, bulky, maintenance demanding. There a compulsory need to monitor at high spatial–temporal resolution smart for public health protection environmental sustainability. Properly calibrated low-cost low-accuracy...

This work investigates the use of an unconventional reference material to determine experimentally Cliff-Lorimer factor for EDS quantitative analysis with a transmission electron microscope. The results demonstrate equivalence bi-layer pure gold on silver respect binary alloy foil same elements. RF-sputtering is suitable technique prepare such materials that have uniform thickness within few percent tolerance. availability calibrated set similar would allow direct measurement k-factors large...
This paper gives a brief report on preliminary real-world measurements by low-cost gas sensorsystems for air quality monitoring in the framework of Italian national project RES-NOVAE -Networks Buidings Streets: New Challenging Objectives Environment and Energy.Measurements were performed electrochemical sensors (CO, NO 2 , O 3 SO ), optical particle counter/detector (PM 1.0 PM 2.5 10 NDIR infrared sensor (CO photo-ionisation detector (total VOCs), including miniaturized meteorological...
Air pollution is a current problem for the environment and public health. Its impact needs to be monitored in urban agglomerates critical hot spots such as airports. Green aviation with low air emissions sustainable goal future. The pollutants are by governmental agencies that employ regulatory monitoring stations, which very accurate but also expensive, bulky, maintenance demands. On contrary, low-cost sensor systems can offer proper solution cover large areas at high spatial-temporal...
This study is focused on volcanic ash ingestion in aircraft engines, that can lead to slow but constant deterioration engine performance and failure because of the mechanical damages wall surface. In particular particles impact blades surfaces cause erosion damage permanent losses performance. Aircraft fans could be severely damaged by flow.. order clarify phenomenon fan has been simulated through general-purpose CFD code numerical simulations were performed using Reynolds–Averaged...
A sensors network based on 8 stationary nodes distributed in Bari (Southern Italy) hasbeen deployed for urban air quality monitoring during advection events of Saharan dust theperiod 2015–2017. The low-cost sensor-systems have been installed specific sites (buildings,offices, schools, streets, airport) to assess the PM10 concentration at high spatial and temporalresolution order supplement expensive official stations citizen sciencepurposes. Continuous measurements were performed by a...
