Pavement Materials for Heat Island Mitigation
Author: Hui Li
Publisher: Butterworth-Heinemann
ISBN: 0128034963
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 389
Book Description
About 90 percent of this excessive heat is due to buildings and pavements that absorb and store solar heat (According to the Green Buildings Council). The only reference that focuses specifically on pavements, Pavement Materials for Heat Island Mitigation: Design and Management Strategies explores different advanced paving materials, their properties, and their associated advantages and disadvantages. Relevant properties of pavement materials (e.g. albedo, permeability, thermal conductivity, heat capacity and evaporation rate) are measured in many cases using newly developed methods. - Includes experimental methods for testing different types of pavements materials - Identifies different cool pavement strategies with their advantages and associated disadvantages - Design and construct local microclimate models to evaluate and validate different cool pavement materials in different climate regions

Urban Overheating - Progress on Mitigation Science and Engineering Applications
Author: Michele Zinzi
Publisher: MDPI
ISBN: 3038976369
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 350
Book Description
The combination of global warming and urban sprawl is the origin of the most hazardous climate change effect detected at urban level: Urban Heat Island, representing the urban overheating respect to the countryside surrounding the city. This book includes 18 papers representing the state of the art of detection, assessment mitigation and adaption to urban overheating. Advanced methods, strategies and technologies are here analyzed including relevant issues as: the role of urban materials and fabrics on urban climate and their potential mitigation, the impact of greenery and vegetation to reduce urban temperatures and improve the thermal comfort, the role the urban geometry in the air temperature rise, the use of satellite and ground data to assess and quantify the urban overheating and develop mitigation solutions, calculation methods and application to predict and assess mitigation scenarios. The outcomes of the book are thus relevant for a wide multidisciplinary audience, including: environmental scientists and engineers, architect and urban planners, policy makers and students.
