Using a set of large eddy point-particle simulations, we explore the fluid dynamics of an
ejected puff resulting from a cough/sneeze. The ejection contains over 61 000 potentially …

We investigate the dispersal of droplet nuclei inside a canonical room of size 10× 10× 3. 2 m
3 with a four-way cassette air-conditioning unit placed at the center of the ceiling. We use …

Prediction of turbulent flow is required for design and assessment of clarifier systems that
have been implemented throughout history to treat water in the urban water cycle through …

Surface overflow rate (SOR), plug flow reactor (PFR) and continuously stirred tank reactor
(CSTR) are common models for clarification unit operations (UO). With wide deployment in …

Turbulence is inherent in clarification basin systems; turbulence is challenging to quantify,
yet directly impacting particulate matter (PM) separation. In computational fluid dynamic …

In the urban water cycle, adsorption facilitated by engineered granular media increasingly is
deployed for solute separation in potable water, stormwater, and wastewater systems. Of …

Large eddy simulation (LES) and coupled physical laboratory-scale modeling are performed
to elucidate tracer transport and particulate matter (PM) fate in a baffled clarification system …

We use large eddy simulations to investigate the puff and droplet dynamics from violent
expiratory events such as coughs and sneezes in the first few seconds following an ejection …

There are many factors that have been observed to attract more citations. One of the most
popular factors is number of authors, often positively associated with an increase in citations …

Student collaboration in research work is often done at the graduate and mostly
postgraduate level. Universities with doctoral programs have a higher number of students …
