Adaptive finite element simulation of stack pollutant emissions over complex terrains

TLDR
In this article, a three-dimensional finite element model for the pollutant dispersion is presented, where the first stage consists on the construction of an adaptive tetrahedral mesh of a rectangular region bounded in its lower part by the terrain and in its upper part by a horizontal plane.

Simulating large emitters using CMAQ and a local scale finite element model. Analysis of the surroundings of Barcelona

TL;DR: In this article, the authors combine a nested grid approach and a finite element model to simulate the subgrid scale of large emitters in the micro-scale, where the results from the nested grid simulation are used as initial and boundary conditions in the sub-grid model, making this approach one-way.

Three-dimensional simulation of wind fields and air pollution over complex terrain

TL;DR: In this paper, the HARMONIE mesoscale model is used as the input data for an adaptive finite element mass consistent wind model, which is then adjusted by a suitable interpolation.
