The topics include\nindoor natural ventilation, pedestrian wind environment, pollutant dispersion,\nurban heat island phenomena, urban ventilation, indoor\/outdoor thermal comfort,\nand experimental\/numerical techniques to analyze those issues. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWinds have a great influence on the outdoor\nenvironment, especially in urban areas. Problems that they cause can be\nattributed to either strong wind or weak wind issues. Strong winds around\nhigh-rise buildings can bring about unpleasant, and in some cases dangerous,\nsituations for people in the outdoor environment. On the other hand, weak wind\nconditions can also cause problems such as air pollution and heat island\nphenomena in urban areas. Winds enhance urban ventilation and reduce those\nproblems. They also enhance natural ventilation in buildings, which can reduce\nthe energy consumption of mechanical ventilation fans and air conditioners for\ncooling. Moderate winds improve human thermal comfort in both indoor and\noutdoor environments in summer. Environmental wind engineering associated with\nwind tunnel experiments and numerical analysis can contribute to solutions to\nthese issues.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2018-04-25\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9784431567271\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-4-431-55912-2\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 196\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Japan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47525335597196,"sku":"9784431567271","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9784431567271.jpg?v=1776023250","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9784431567271","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
