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.

Use of particle tracking velocimetry in timber material and connection testing

TL;DR: Particle tracking velocimetry (PTV) was applied for the first time in three different experimental studies in the field of structural timber engineering: (1) dowel embedment testing in cross laminated timber (CLT), (2) large-scale dowelled CLT connection testing, (3) material testing of small clear wood and laminated veneer lumber (LVL) as discussed by the authors.

Limiting Uncertainty Relations in Laser-Based Measurements of Position and Velocity Due to Quantum Shot Noise

TL;DR: The Cramér-Rao bound is described as a universal information theoretic tool to calculate the minimal achievable measurement uncertainty for different measurement techniques, and a review of the respective lower bounds for laser-based measurements of position, displacement, strain and velocity at particles and surfaces is presented.

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.
