Understanding transmission dynamics of COVID-19-type infections by direct numerical simulations of cough/sneeze flows

SS Diwan, S Ravichandran, R Govindarajan… - Transactions of the …, 2020 - Springer
The transmission dynamics of highly contagious respiratory diseases like COVID-19
(through coughing/sneezing) is an open problem in the epidemiological studies of such …

Virus transmission by aerosol transport during short conversations

R Singhal, S Ravichandran, R Govindarajan, SS Diwan - Flow, 2022 - cambridge.org
The SARS-CoV-2 is transmitted not only through coughing, but also through breathing,
speaking or singing. We perform direct numerical simulations of the turbulent transport of …

Entrainment in dry and moist thermals

GR Vybhav, S Ravichandran - Physical Review Fluids, 2022 - APS
We study entrainment in dry thermals in neutrally and unstably stratified ambients, and moist
thermals in dry-neutrally stratified ambients using direct numerical simulations. We find, in …

Direct numerical simulation of a moist cough flow using Eulerian approximation for liquid droplets

R Singhal, S Ravichandran… - International Journal of …, 2021 - Taylor & Francis
The COVID-19 pandemic has inspired several studies on the fluid dynamics of respiratory
events. Here, we propose a computational approach in which respiratory droplets are …

Fluid Dynamics in Clouds
