High Dynamic Velocity Range Particle Image Velocimetry Using Multiple Pulse Separation Imaging

open access: yesSensors, 2010
The dynamic velocity range of particle image velocimetry (PIV) is determined by the maximum and minimum resolvable particle displacement. Various techniques have extended the dynamic range, however flows with a wide velocity range (e.g., impinging jets ...

Near-wall velocity measurements by Particle-Shadow-Tracking [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We report a new method to measure the velocity of a fluid in the vicinity of a wall. The method, that we call Particle-Shadow Tracking (PST), simply consists in seeding the fluid with a small number of fine tracer particles of density close to that of ...

Enhancement of Heading Accuracy for GPS/INS by Employing Average Velocity in Low Dynamic Situations

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
In this paper, we proposed an algorithm that improves the heading accuracy of the global positioning system (GPS)/inertial navigation system (INS) integrated system used in automobiles by manipulating INS velocity and GPS velocity measurements.

Penetration Characteristics of Air, Carbon Dioxide and Helium Transverse Sonic Jets in Mach 5 Cross Flow

open access: yesSensors, 2014
An experimental investigation of sonic air, CO2 and Helium transverse jets in Mach 5 cross flow was carried out over a flat plate. The jet to freestream momentum flux ratio, J, was kept the same for all gases.

Wave Measurements Using GPS Velocity Signals

open access: yesSensors, 2011
This study presents the idea of using GPS-output velocity signals to obtain wave measurement data. The application of the transformation from a velocity spectrum to a displacement spectrum in conjunction with the directional wave spectral theory are the ...

Effects of Inclination on Measuring Velocity Dispersion and Implications for Black Holes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The relation of central black hole mass and stellar spheroid velocity dispersion (the M-$\sigma$ relation) is one of the best-known and tightest correlations linking black holes and their host galaxies.

CEPHEID PULSATIONS FROM RADIAL VELOCITY MEASUREMENTS

open access: yesOdessa Astronomical Publications, 2017
We discuss the results of our many-year program of Cepheid radial velocities concerning the Hertzsprung sequence in radial-velocity curves, double-mode Cepheids, the period-radius relation, binary Cepheids.

The Rising Stellar Velocity Dispersion of M87 from Integrated Starlight [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We have measured the line-of-sight velocity distribution from integrated stellar light at two points in the outer halo of M87 (NGC 4486), the second-rank galaxy in the Virgo Cluster.

Absolute velocity measurements in sunspot umbrae

open access: yes, 2018
In sunspot umbrae, convection is largely suppressed by the strong magnetic field. Previous measurements reported on negligible convective flows in umbral cores.
