“…Against this background, further numerical studies have been conducted on the interactions between high-speed, chaotic exhaled air and the liquid-layer lining the inner surface of the airway (i.e., the mucus layer) during the coughing episode. The two most common methods adopted are the volume of fluid (Paz et al, 2019;Rajendran & Banerjee, 2019;Pairetti et al, 2021;Yi et al, 2021) and Eulerian wall film (EWF) models (Paz, Suárez, Parga, et al, 2017;Ren et al, 2018Ren et al, , 2020Ren et al, , 2022Anzai et al, 2022).
