OpenPIV-MATLAB — An open-source software for particle image velocimetry; test case: Birds’ aerodynamics
We present an open-source MATLAB package, entitled OpenPIV-MATLAB, for analyzing particle image velocimetry (PIV) data. We extend the PIV analysis with additional tools for post-processing the PIV results including the estimation of aero/hydrodynamic forces from the PIV data of a wake behind an imme...
