have been on a plane in this past year?
విమాన ప్రయాణం చేసారు
share that experience
people every year.
in all these metal tubes
outbreak last year.
through these more range-limited,
కూడా వస్తాయి
a look at some of the numbers,
to go on the plane
నిర్ణయించుకున్నాడు
ప్రయాణీకులకు సోకవచ్చు
to 17 other people.
other guy with SARS,
of a great superpower.
what we also find
to pre-screen for these diseases.
goes on a plane,
be in this latency period
have the disease
spread the disease
from the top of the cabin
as you see in blue.
కూడా వస్తుంది
through these very efficient filters
ద్వారా బయటికి వెళ్తుంది
of pathogens near the outlets.
వెళ్ళే దారిలో వదిలేస్తాయి
mixing airflow pattern.
around multiple times
to go out through the filter.
is a pretty serious problem.
to go out and buy a plane,
కొనేంత డబ్బు నావద్దలేదు
చేసుకోవాలనుకున్నాను
with computational fluid dynamics,
డైనమిక్స్ సహాయంతో రూపొందుతుంది
is create these simulations
రీడింగ్ లకంటే
in and taking readings in the plane.
is you would start out
in technical papers around the Internet.
చెక్కర్లు కొడుతున్నాయి
into this 3D-modeling software,
ప్రవేశపెట్టాను
that I just built into these tiny pieces,
the computer can better understand it.
కృషి చేసాను
the air goes in and out of the cabin,
సూత్రాల ద్వారా క్యాబిన్ లో గాలి
the computer calculates the simulation.
లెక్కించే వరకు నేను అక్కడే వేచి వున్నాను
with the conventional cabin is this:
మీరు గమనించేవుంటారు
right into people's faces.
మొహాలపై చిందుతాయి
those two passengers
మీరు గమనించారా
at that from the side,
spreading across the length of the cabin.
గమనించి వుంటారు
"This is no good."
ఇది బాగాలేదు అని
more than 32 different simulations
పరిస్థితులపై అధ్యయనం చేసాను
with this solution right here.

that are already in the plane.
of screws in there and you're good to go.
బిగిస్తే చాలు పనిచేస్తుంది
are absolutely amazing.
swirling airflow patterns,
here is sneezing again,
తుమ్ముతున్నాడు గమనించండి
to effectively push that down
push those pathogens down.
పంపడాన్ని మీరు గమనించండి
at the same scenario
passenger sneezes,
that straight down into the outlet
క్రిందికి తోస్తున్నాము
to infect any other people.
sitting next to the middle guy
మీరు గమనించారా
no pathogens at all.
మనం గెలిచాము
if the middle passenger sneezes,
తుమ్మినప్పుడు మాత్రమే కాకుండా
passenger sneezes
తుమ్మినా ఇది పనిచేస్తోంది
this mean for the world?
into real life,
that I built over here,
మనం దీన్ని చూడగలం
airflow patterns coming down,
మనం చూస్తున్నాం
actually cost the world
could actually cost the world
ఇలాంటి ఖర్చు చేయిస్తుంది
to take an airplane out of service
ప్రయోగించి చూడాలి
and several million dollars
ఎన్నో మిలియన్ల డాలర్లను ఖర్చుపెట్టి
something essentially overnight
రాత్రికిరాత్రే అమర్చగలం
this through to certification,
regulatory approvals processes.
that sometimes the best solutions
శ్రేష్ఠమైన పరిష్కారాలు
wouldn't have supported it.
of you today is: why wait?
ఆలస్యమెందుకు?
