Who are we ?
Within AREP , the team made up of PhD’s, engineers and architects is commited to enable the computation of complex climatic phenomena in outdoor and semi-outdoor spaces. As most commercial softwares do not allow to properly characterize this typology of spaces, we use a coupling of different numerical methods, as well as intensive parallel computing methods.
Why this website ?
This site has several purposes:
- To provide the theoretical background needed to explain the physics of phenomena occurring in open and semi-open environments (e.g. railway stations and their urban surroundings): comfort, airflow, air quality, pollution, etc.
- Share a selection of our references, both academic and projects to which the team has contributed,
- Share recent developments, such as codes or web tools ,
- Finally, a small Blog section.
