Sniffers: Fluid-Dynamic Sampling for Olfactory Trace Detection in Nature and Homeland Security—The 2004 Freeman Scholar Lecture
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Vertebrates aim their noses at regions of interest and sniff in order to acquire olfactory trace signals that carry information on food, reproduction, kinship, danger, etc. Invertebrates likewise ...
A Computational and Experimental Investigation of the Human Thermal Plume
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The behavior of the buoyant plume of air shed by a human being in an indoor environment is important to room ventilation requirements, airborne disease spread, air pollution control, indoor ...
Computational Study of the Wake and Contaminant Transport of a Walking Human
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The unsteady aerodynamic wake of a human is studied using a time-accurate computational fluid dynamics simulation. Transport of a scalar contaminant, which originates on the body, is also ...
Development and Verification of a High-Fidelity Computational Fluid Dynamics Model of Canine Nasal Airflow
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The canine nasal cavity contains a complex airway labyrinth, dedicated to respiratory air conditioning, filtering of inspired contaminants, and olfaction. The small and contorted anatomical structure ...
