Secondary atomization of a liquid droplet can be achieved by subjecting it to a high-speed
gas stream. This is referred as the aerodynamic breakup, and is encountered in various …

A face shield is an important personal protective equipment to avoid the airborne
transmission of COVID-19. We assess a transparent coating on a face shield that repels …

In this work, the fractional calculus approach is considered for modeling the viscoelastic
behavior of human cornea. It is observed that the degree of both elasticity and viscosity is …

Non-contact tonometry (NCT) is a non-invasive ophthalmologic technique to measure
intraocular pressure (IOP) using an air puff for routine glaucoma testing. Although IOP …

Aerosols, generated and expelled during common human physiological activities or medical
procedures, become a vital carrier for the transmission of severe acute respiratory syndrome …

We investigate the cleaning mechanism of an oil-impregnated porous surface by utilizing a
method of vortex ring interaction. The kinetic energy of a vortex ring is exploited to expunge …

The purpose of this study was to investigate the possible effects of the noncontact air puff
tonometry (NCT) and Icare rebound tonometry (ICT) on the tear film stability by using the tear …

Hypothesis Interfacial instabilities cause undesirable droplet breakage during impact. Such
breakage affects many applications, such as printing, spraying, etc. Particle coating over a …

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the mechanism of potential droplet
formation in response to air puff deformation with two noncontact tonometers (NCTs) …

We study the air layer dynamics beneath a drop impinging a heated surface at low impact
energy using high-speed reflection interferometry imaging and theoretical analysis. The air …
