Computational characterization of the behavior of a saliva droplet in a social environment
Ugarte Anero, Ainara; Fernández Gámiz, Unai; Portal Porras, Koldo; Zulueta Guerrero, Ekaitz; Urbina García, Oskar (Nature Research, 2022-04)[EN] The conduct of respiratory droplets is the basis of the study to reduce the spread of a virus in society. The pandemic suffered in early 2020 due to COVID-19 shows the lack of research on the evaporation and fate of ... -
Numerical modeling of a sneeze, a cough and a continuum speech inside a hospital lift
Chillón, Sergio; Fernández Gámiz, Unai; Zulueta Guerrero, Ekaitz; Ugarte Anero, Ainara; Urbina García, Oskar (Elsevier, 2023-02)The global COVID-19 and its variants put us on notice of the importance of studying the spread of respiratory diseases. The most common means of propagation was the emission of droplets due to different respiration activities. ... -
Numerical Modeling of Face Shield Protection against a Sneeze
Ugarte Anero, Ainara; Fernández Gámiz, Unai; Aramendia Iradi, Iñigo; Zulueta Guerrero, Ekaitz; López Guede, José Manuel (MDPI, 2021-07-05)The protection provided by wearing masks has been a guideline worldwide to prevent the risk of COVID-19 infection. The current work presents an investigation that analyzes the effectiveness of face shields as personal ... -
Numerical Modeling of the Spread of Cough Saliva Droplets in a Calm Confined Space
Chillón, Sergio; Ugarte Anero, Ainara; Aramendia Iradi, Iñigo; Fernández Gámiz, Unai; Zulueta Guerrero, Ekaitz (MDPI, 2021-03-08)The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak has altered the lives of everyone on a global scale due to its high transmission rate. In the current work, the droplet dispersion and evaporation originated by a cough at ... -
Numerical performance of CO2 accumulation and droplet dispersion from a cough inside a hospital lift under different ventilation strategies
Chillón, Sergio; Fernández Gámiz, Unai; Zulueta Guerrero, Ekaitz; Ugarte Anero, Ainara; Blanco Ilzarbe, Jesús María (Nature, 2024)The impact of mechanical ventilation on airborne diseases is not completely known. The recent pandemic of COVID-19 clearly showed that additional investigations are necessary. The use of computational tools is an advantage ...
