Abstract
Road complex which includes a road network with traffic, road services, car repair businesses, and enterprises for the production of fuels and materials for the repair of roads, is an important source of environmental pollution, and the degree of contamination depends on the quality of the road pavement. The present research is aimed to find the interaction between the amount of emissions into the environment from whole road complex and condition of road cover, on creation of a simplified method of determining economic damage from environmental pollution at the road operation and to develop basic mechanism of the economic impact on road services at excess emissions. According to the results of computer experiments mathematical relations of complex road emissions from the evenness of road pavement were obtained. Worked out method of greenhouse (and other) emission inventory permits to determine the total amount of emissions and to identify excess emissions relative to some acceptable level. Definition of economic damage of environmental pollution during road operation can be the basis for determining the amount of ban impositions on road service.

Mikrowiry Kołmogorowa w korycie o złożonym przekroju poprzecznym
Przedstawiono długości podłużnych mikrowirów (mikroskala Kołmogorowa) w strumieniu w korycie o złożonym przekroju poprzecznym. Długości mikrowirów obliczono na podstawie szybkości dyssypacji energii i lepkości cieczy. Do...
