Air Pollution from Motor Vehicles: Standards and Technologies for Controlling Emissions

Buy

Contributions by Surhid Gautam and Lit-Mian Chan. This book presents a state-of-the art review of vehicle emission standards and regulations and provides a synthesis of worldwide experience with vehicle emission control technologies and their applications in both industrial and developing countries. Topics covered include: * The two principal international systems of vehicle emission standards: those of North America and Europe * Test procedures used to verify compliance with emissions standards and to estimate actual emissions * Engine and aftertreatment technologies that have been developed to enable new vehicles to comply with emission standards, as well as the cost and other impacts of these technologies * An evaluation of measures for controlling emissions from in-use vehicles * The role of fuels in reducing vehicle emissions, the benefits that could be gained by reformulating conventional gasoline and diesel fuels, the potential benefits of alternative cleaner fuels, and the prospects for using hydrogen and electric power to run motor vehicles with ultra-low or zero emissions. This book is the first in a series of publications on vehicle-related pollution and control measures prepared by the World Bank in collaboration with the United Nations Environment Programme to underpin the Bank's overall objective of promoting transport that is environmentally sustainable and least damaging to human health and welfare.

Modelling Distributed Systems (Texts in Theoretical Computer Science. An EATCS Series)
Modelling Distributed Systems (Texts in Theoretical Computer Science. An EATCS Series)
A distributed system is driven by separate components that are executed in parallel, and protocols for such systems form a major aspect of system design in todays world of wireless and mobile networking. Process algebras are languages for the description of elementary parallel systems and are used to study the behavioural properties of distributed...
A Unified Approach to Interior Point Algorithms for Linear Complementarity Problems
A Unified Approach to Interior Point Algorithms for Linear Complementarity Problems

The recent remarkable developments of interior point algorithms began in 1984 with Karmarkar's polynomial-time interior point algorithm for linear programs using a log- arithmic potential function and a projective transformation. The progress has been made so rapidly and extensively that it seems difficult to get a comprehensive...


TeamCity 7 Continous Integration
TeamCity 7 Continous Integration

Nowadays, Agile application development is usually done at a fast pace when many developers are working on the same piece of code. Every so often, this becomes a real challenge if there's no permanent control over consistency of the project source. It is often impossible to force lazy and/or busy programmers to execute tests before and...

Integrating Soft Computing into Strategic Prospective Methods: Towards an Adaptive Learning Environment Supported by Futures Studies (Studies in Fuzziness and Soft Computing)
Integrating Soft Computing into Strategic Prospective Methods: Towards an Adaptive Learning Environment Supported by Futures Studies (Studies in Fuzziness and Soft Computing)

This book discusses how to build optimization tools able to generate better future studies. It aims at showing how these tools can be used to develop an adaptive learning environment that can be used for decision making in the presence of uncertainties. The book starts with existing fuzzy techniques and multicriteria decision making...
