Hospital buildings are required to secure a variety of indoor environments according to the
diverse requirements of patients and staff. Among these requirements, thermal comfort is an …

Epidemiologic evidence indicates a relationship between outdoor particle exposure and
adverse health effects, while most people spend 85–90% of their time indoors, thus …

The present study investigates aerosol transport and surface deposition in a realistic
classroom environment using computational fluid-particle dynamics simulations. Effects of …

Effective ventilation could reduce COVID-19 infection in buildings. By using a computational

Droplet dispersion carrying viruses/bacteria in enclosed/crowded buses may induce
transmissions of respiratory infectious diseases, but the influencing mechanisms have been …

Understanding how respiratory droplets become droplet nuclei and their dispersion is
essential for understanding the mechanisms and control of disease transmission via droplet …

Improper natural ventilation practices may deteriorate indoor air quality when in close
proximity to roadways, although the intention is often to reduce energy consumption. In this …

Portable air cleaners (PACs) can remove airborne SARS-CoV-2 exhaled by COVID-19
infectors indoor. However, effectively locating PAC to reduce the infection risk is still poorly …

Prediction of particle dispersion and distribution in a room is very important for creating and
maintaining a healthy indoor environment. The present study used a CFD program with a …

The indoor environment of a mechanically ventilated hospital building controls infection
rates as well as influences patients' healing processes and overall medical outcomes. This …
