...Introduction Because the features and variables of human populations and ecosystems are constantly changing, it may seem that all that is needed in environmental physics is a knowledge of dynamics, with little need for statics. However, statics is a key building block of these systems. For example...

...Introduction Because a fluid will change its shape continuously with shear stress, any amount of shear stress will deform a fluid. The most common fluids in the environmental arena are air and water. Fluid mechanics abides by five of the physical laws: Conservation of mass; Newton's second law...

...Introduction The top sites in a web search for “environmental health physics” are related to radiation. It is defined as ( Moeller, 2005 ) This venue is extremely important and continues to grow in importance given the wide use of radiation technologies in the healthcare community. However...

..., 2023), pp. 3-1–3-16. Introduction In recent years, the design and installation of photovoltaic (PV) energy systems have gained importance because there is a global trend to promote decarbonized technologies to reduce the environmental impact and greenhouse gas emissions caused by the use of pollutant...

.... 2-1–2-22. Introduction Global warming, environmental pollution, and possible scarcity of fossil fuel reserves are some of the main driving forces behind the urge for installing solar photovoltaic (PV) systems ( Mokhtara et al., 2021a ). But PV panels only generate electricity while the sun...
