Twenty years of particle image velocimetry

TLDR
The development of the method of particle image velocimetry (PIV) is traced by describing some of the milestones that have enabled new and/or better measurements to be made.
Abstract
The development of the method of particle image velocimetry (PIV) is traced by describing some of the milestones that have enabled new and/or better measurements to be made. The current status of PIV is summarized, and some goals for future advances are addressed.

Tracking granules on the Sun's surface and reconstructing velocity fields - I. The CST algorithm

TL;DR: In this article, a method called CST for coherent structure tracking, which determines the horizontal motion of granules in the field of view, is proposed, which is shown to be less effective for large granules because of increased sensitivity to granule fragmentation.

Structures of supercavitating multiphase flows

TL;DR: In this paper, a high-speed video camera is used to visualize the flow structures under different cavitation numbers, and a particle image velocimetry (PIV) technique was used to measure the instantaneous velocity and vorticity fields.

Spatiotemporal analysis of turbulent jets enabled by 100-kHz, 100-ms burst-mode particle image velocimetry

TL;DR: In this article, a double-pulsed, burst-mode laser with a burst duration up to 100ms was used for particle image velocimetry (PIV).

Resolving two-dimensional flow structure in rivers using large-scale particle image velocimetry: An example from a stream confluence

TL;DR: In this paper, a high-resolution action camera mounted above a stream confluence and water seeded with recycled landscape mulch is used to measure surface velocities at high spatial and temporal resolution.

Particle Image Velocimetry: A Practical Guide

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a practical guide for the planning, performance and understanding of experiments employing the PIV technique, which is primarily intended for engineers, scientists and students, who already have some basic knowledge of fluid mechanics and nonintrusive optical measurement techniques.

Digital Particle Image Velocimetry

TL;DR: In this article, the directional ambiguity associated with PIV and LSV is resolved by implementing local spatial cross-correlations between two sequential single-exposed particle images, and the recovered velocity data are used to compute the spatial and temporal vorticity distribution and the circulation of the vortex ring.

Determination of displacements using an improved digital correlation method

TL;DR: An improved digital correlation method is presented for obtaining the full-field in-plane deformations of an object by numerically correlating a selected subset from the digitized intensity pattern of the undeformed object.

Fundamentals of digital particle image velocimetry

TL;DR: In this paper, the measurement principle of digital particle image velocimetry (PIV) is described in terms of linear system theory and conditions for PIV correlation analysis as a valid interrogation method are determined.
