This review is motivated by the fast progress in our understanding of the physics of particle-
laden turbulence in the last decade, partly due to the tremendous advances of measurement …

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), due to infection by the severe acute respiratory
syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), is now causing a global pandemic. Aerosol …

Recent studies have highlighted the importance of the atmosphere in the long-range
transport of microplastic fibres. However, their dry deposition in the atmosphere is not fully …

Fragmentation of bubbles and droplets in turbulence produces a dispersed phase spanning
a broad range of scales, encompassing everything from droplets in nanoemulsions to …

When very small particles are suspended in a fluid in motion, they tend to follow the flow.
How such tracer particles are mixed, transported, and dispersed by turbulent flow has been …

Using what has become a celebrated catchphrase, Philip W. Anderson once wrote that
“more is different”(Science, Vol. 177, Issue 4047, pp. 393–396, 1972). First formulated in the …

Fluid turbulence is commonly associated with stronger drag, greater heat transfer, and more
efficient mixing than in laminar flows. In many natural and industrial settings, turbulent liquid …

In large-eddy simulation (LES) of turbulent dispersed flows, modelling and numerical
inaccuracies are incurred because LES provides only an approximation of the filtered …

The motion, settling, and dispersion of microplastics in the ocean are determined by their
rotational dynamics. We present experiments on elongated, large aspect ratio, and mildly …

The shape of environmental aerosols contributes to the discrepancy in their dynamic
behavior compared to spherical particles, which have received inadequate consideration …
