  2. Particle image velocimetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle_image_velocimetry

    Particle image velocimetry (PIV) is a non-intrusive optical flow measurement technique used to study fluid flow patterns and velocities. PIV has found widespread applications in various fields of science and engineering, including aerodynamics, combustion, oceanography, and biofluids.

  3. Peripheral vision - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peripheral_vision

    Classical image of the shape and size of the visual field [28]. The outer boundaries of peripheral vision correspond to the boundaries of the visual field as a whole. For a single eye, the extent of the visual field can be (roughly) defined in terms of four angles, each measured from the fixation point, i.e., the point at which one's gaze is directed.

  4. Vision rehabilitation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vision_rehabilitation

    Vision rehabilitation (often called vision rehab) is a term for a medical rehabilitation to improve vision or low vision. In other words, it is the process of restoring functional ability and improving quality of life and independence in an individual who has lost visual function through illness or injury.

  6. Stokes number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stokes_number

    In experimental fluid dynamics, the Stokes number is a measure of flow tracer fidelity in particle image velocimetry (PIV) experiments where very small particles are entrained in turbulent flows and optically observed to determine the speed and direction of fluid movement (also known as the velocity field of the fluid). For acceptable tracing ...

  7. Velocimetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Velocimetry

    Velocimetry portal is an online center for Laser Flow Diagnostic Techniques (PIV, StereoPIV, MicroPIV, NanoPIV, High speed PIV, PTV, LDV, PDPA, PLIF, ILIDS, PSP etc.). This portal is being developed so as to provide as much information as possible about the Laser Flow Diagnostic Techniques in a consolidated manner.

  8. Seeding (fluid dynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seeding_(fluid_dynamics)

    PIV is a technique. In this technique, seed particles are introduced into a fluid. The movement of these particles is captured by high-speed cameras. By analyzing the sequential images, the velocity of the fluid can be determined across the entire field of view. This method is widely used for studying complex flow patterns.

  9. Field of view - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Field_of_view

    For example, binocular vision, which is the basis for stereopsis and is important for depth perception, covers 114 degrees (horizontally) of the visual field in humans; [7] the remaining peripheral ~50 degrees on each side [6] have no binocular vision (because only one eye can see those parts of the visual field). Some birds have a scant 10 to ...
