The Covid-19 pandemic has focused attention on airborne transmission of viruses. Using realistic air flow simulation, we model droplet dispersion from coughing and study the transmission risk related to SARS-CoV-2. Although most airborne…
We study the dynamics of moving discrete breathers in an interfaced piecewise DNA molecule. This is a DNA chain in which all the base pairs are identical and there exists an interface such that the base pairs dipole moments at each side are…
We provide a fundamental treatment of the molecular communication channel wherein "inscribed matter" is transmitted across a spatial gap to provide reliable signaling between a sender and receiver. Inscribed matter is defined as an ensemble…
We introduce a cost-efficient, and open-source measurement system for measuring and monitoring indoor air quality, aerosol concentration, dust contamination, and comfort-relevant quantities. The system allows to access these quantities…
Radio signals are sensitive to changes in the environment, which for example is reflected on the received signal strength (RSS) measurements of low-cost wireless devices. This information has been used effectively in the past years e.g. in…
Airborne transmission of SARS-CoV-2 via virus-laden aerosols in enclosed spaces poses a significant concern. Elevators, commonly utilized enclosed spaces in modern tall buildings, present a challenge as the impact of varying heating,…
