SIGS: 

FROM: Ian Wilson, Fluid Mechanics of Cleaning & Decontamination,
24/3/2022 

SUBJECT: 'Roadmap for Quantitative Modelling of Cleaning and
Decontamination' published today! 

DETAILS: The Organizers of the Modelling of Cleaning and Decontamination
(ModCaD) Workshop [10] are delighted to share the outcomes of this
EPSRC-funded workshop in this brief Roadmap [11], which reflects the
contributions from all the workshop participants. 

The Roadmap shows the importance of cleaning and decontamination
activities across a broad range of socio-economic sectors and in daily
life. It captures the expertise and state-of-the art in terms of the
fundamental understanding of the underpinning science behind cleaning
and decontamination activities, as well as its practical implementation.
The Roadmap also highlights shortcomings and critical needs in the field
at the scientific and practical levels. We present short-term and
long-term strategies to address these needs.
