Version: 0.3.2-1 Upstream Author: Gerber van der Graaf <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * URL : http://gpiv.sourceforge.net/ * License : GPL Description : Command line programs for Particle Image Velocimetry A collection of programs for recording and interrogating images that are generated during a Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) experiment. This is a technique to obtain the velocity field of a fluid flow quantitatively and is performed by tracking tracer particles that have been seeded to a fluid. The technique is also applied for observing deformations at surfaces of (solid) bodies. The package contains: . an image recording program that uses an IEEE1394 (Firewire) IIDC-compliant camera and a program for triggering the camera with a light source (mostly a double cavity Nd-YAG laser). Trigger pulses are sent over the parallel port of the computer using RealTimeLinux and RTAI. . an image processing program for typical filtering and manipulation routines that may be convenient for PIV. . an image interrogation program resulting into estimators of particle image displacements. . validation programs to test on outliers, peak-locking effect and velocity gradients. . post-processing programs for data manipulation (flipping, rotation etc), spatial and time scaling, calculation of spatial averages and derivatived quantities from the PIV data, like vorticity and strain. . miscelaneous programs and scripts to perform image format conversion, batch-processing, pipeline processing (image evaluation, validation and post-processing at once), calculation of time averages from a series of PIV data sets, data-visualization and data-manipulation. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.8-2-686 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) I packaged this software together with the belonging libgpiv package and an additional GTK/Gnome GUI program gpiv. As upstream author a am interested to build and maintain the package. Of course, help and comments are welcome. -- Gerber van der Graaf Main developer of Gpiv: Open Source Software for Particle Image Velocimetry http://gpiv.sourceforge.net pnupg key id: ID D39A2B64 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
