In recent years, pandemic outbreaks have raised concerns about the spread of respiratory
infections and their impact on public health. Since the pathogen emission during human …

Although face masks have been used for over a century to provide protection against
airborne pathogens and pollutants, close scrutiny of their effectiveness has peaked in the …

Accurate measurements of the size and quantity of aerosols generated by various human
activities in different environments are required for efficacious mitigation strategies and …

Aerosol droplets made from respiratory liquid are of fundamental importance for airborne
transmission of several virus-based diseases, such as COVID-19. While the transmission …

Activities such as singing or playing a wind instrument release respiratory particles into the
air that may contain pathogens and thus pose a risk for infection transmission. Here we …

Negative pressure isolation rooms are employed to prevent the spread of infectious
diseases to surrounding spaces. This study reports a combined experimental and numerical …

We combine experiments and numerical computations to examine underlying fluid
mechanical processes associated with bioaerosol generation during violent respiratory …

The dispersion of aerosols originating from one source, the 'index'passenger, within the
cabin of the aircraft Do728 is studied experimentally using an aerosol-exhaling thermal …

Airborne diseases can be transmitted by infectious aerosols in the near field, ie, in close
proximity, or in the far field, ie, by infectious aerosols that are well mixed within the indoor air …

A large variety of physical phenomena can be described by large-scale systems of linear
ordinary differential equations (ODEs) obtained by one of the discretization methods, in …
