Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanisms of scent-tracking in humans

TL;DR: Findings reveal fundamental mechanisms of scent-tracking and suggest that the poor reputation of human olfaction may reflect, in part, behavioral demands rather than ultimate abilities.
Journal ArticleDOI

A schlieren optical study of the human cough with and without wearing masks for aerosol infection control.

TL;DR: The schlieren optical method, previously applied mostly in engineering and physics, can be effectively used here to visualize airflows around human subjects in such indoor situations, non-intrusively and without the need for either tracer gas or airborne particles.
Journal ArticleDOI

The fluid dynamics of canine olfaction: unique nasal airflow patterns as an explanation of macrosmia.

TL;DR: It is proposed that mammalian Olfactory function and acuity may largely depend on odorant transport by nasal airflow patterns resulting from either the presence of a highly developed olfactory recess or the lack of one, in macrosmats such as the canine or in microsmats including humans.
Journal ArticleDOI

A chip scale electrocaloric effect based cooling device

TL;DR: In this article, a chip scale Electrocaloric Oscillatory Refrigeration (ECOR) can be realized, by employing regeneration process with solid state regenerators, a prototype ECOR is fabricated and characterized.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reconstruction and Morphometric Analysis of the Nasal Airway of the Dog (Canis familiaris) and Implications Regarding Olfactory Airflow

TL;DR: A high-resolution view of the nasal airway of a large dog, using magnetic resonance imaging scans, which provides insight into the functional nature of canine olfaction and nondimensional analysis is used to show that the airflow within both the maxilloturbinate and ethmoidal regions must be laminar.
