Traffic induced air pollution in Milan city: a modelling study

摘要

In the frame of the ESPRIT Program, the SIMTRAP project (SIMulation of TRaffic induced Air Pollution) has been promoted to develop and to apply to some test eases a modelling system supporting decision makers in air quality and traffic planning. The architecture consists of the integration and the parallelisation of two models: a dynamic traffic model and a photochemical model describing the atmospheric dispersion of the pollutants. This article describes the system and its application to the metropolitan area of Milan.
