The Impact of Dust Particles on Cultural Heritage Objects in the Field of Environmental Mechanics

Abstract:

Nowadays due to the active step of urbanisation and rapid development of industry, the contamination of atmospheric air is one of the key aspects of environmental mechanics. Polluted air deteriorates the appearance of historical buildings and architectural monuments. With the help of modern methods, aimed at preservation of cultural heritage objects, it is possible to evaluate the impact of dusty air on the appearance of historical buildings in order to save them, because it is a demonstration of architectural and design features of various temporary periods.
