Review of an intelligent indoor environment monitoring and management system for COVID-19 risk mitigation

Frontiers in Public Health, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 10

Опубликована: Янв. 10, 2023

The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) outbreak has turned the world upside down bringing about a massive impact on society due to enforced measures such as curtailment of personal travel and limitations economic activities. global pandemic resulted in numerous people spending their time at home, working, learning from home hence exposing them air contaminants outdoor indoor origins. COVID-19 is caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), which spreads airborne transmission. viruses found indoors are linked building's ventilation system quality. flow an environment controls movement advection any aerosols, pollutants, Carbon Dioxide (CO2) created sources/occupants; quantity CO2 can be measured sensors. Indoor monitoring technique used track person's risk, but high or low levels do not necessarily mean that virus present air. monitors, short, help inform individual whether they breathing clean In terms risk mitigation strategies, intelligent systems use various sensors available marketplace. This work presents review scientific articles influence development environmental quality management system. paper underlines non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) sensor ESP8266 microcontroller support low-cost facilities.

Tackling pandemic‐related health grand challenges: The role of organizational ambidexterity, social equality, and innovation performance

Journal of Product Innovation Management, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 41(2), С. 347 - 378

Опубликована: Янв. 27, 2023

Abstract The outbreak of COVID‐19 has brought the world to a standstill, with severe consequences on economic and health systems, requiring identification implementation innovative solutions. This study's aims are threefold: first, examine impact balanced combined dimensions ambidexterity for‐profit organizations' innovation performance related pandemics; second, uncover whether what extent such contributes tackling global grand challenges (i.e., mortality rate, risk infection, life expectancy) associated and, third, investigate moderating role social equalities in relationships between health‐related outcomes pandemics. To how firms tackle pandemics, we they have introduced product innovations sector, defined as market introduction new or significantly improved good, that helped address pandemic. Using panel dataset (1974–2020) 15,062 firm‐year observations from United States, show both separate synchronous strong positive effect firms' particularly, initiatives results also reveal activities granted patents citations focused COVID‐19) negatively affect rate well increasing expectancy, this relationship. Taken together, make novel contributions literature pandemics through provide actionable managerial guidance can enhance performance.

The effects of desk-partition layout on cough droplet dynamics relating to seasonal influenza

Physics of Fluids, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 36(1)

Опубликована: Янв. 1, 2024

The use of physical dividers as control measures for short-range viral transmission in indoor settings has gained increasing attention. However, the understanding regarding their correct usage under different seating arrangements is incomplete. In this study, we focused on assessing effectiveness impeding transient cough droplets three representative layouts using large-eddy simulation technique with Eulerian–Lagrangian model. We computationally also investigated effects ventilation droplet desk-divider layouts. approach was tested two rates (1.0 and 1.8 m/s). A comparative analysis flow fields, topologies, particle directions been studied. findings indicate that sitting arrangements, rates, partition play a significant role designing effective infection office setup considered. protected occupied zone (POV) worked best situations low m/s) cross-partition protecting healthy persons. addition, POV performed well high (1.8 face-to-face layout. side-by-side configuration poorly considered person seated directly opposite infected person. numerical predictions may be used to validate other experimental studies educate workers engineers airborne control.
