In the past few years, significant efforts have been made to investigate the transmission of COVID-19. This paper provides a review of the COVID-19 airborne transmission modeling and mitigation strategies. The simulation models here are classified into airborne transmission infectious risk models and numerical approaches for spatiotemporal airborne transm ...

The use of multiple robots to manufacture composite components represents a critical development direction for fiber placement systems (FPSs). In multi-robotic fiber placement systems (MRFPSs) with heterogeneous mechanical structures, robots collaborate to perform fiber placement tasks. Consequently, robot synchronization emerges as a primary factor in de ...

Aqueous organic redox flow batteries (AORFBs) are a safe and sustainable solution for the storage of intermittent renewable energy. While several highly soluble two-electron organic molecule negolytes have been developed for AORFBs, most reported organic posolyte species exchange only one electron. Herein, readily available 4,4'-hydrazobis(1-methylpyr ...

Developing low-cost and easy-to-use point-of-care devices is necessary for timely disease diagnosis and health monitoring. Here, we introduce all-inclusive, tablet-based chemo/biosensors with rapid automixing features, capable of mixing in highly viscous solutions with viscosities up to 1700 mPa·s. These tablets are created using a simple powder compressi ...

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), such as perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS), are persistent environmental pollutants posing significant risks to ecosystems, drinking water safety, and human health. Conventional PFAS removal methods effectively mitigate contamination but face challenges such as high operational ...
