The Signal in the Noise: Understanding and Mitigating Decorrelation in Particle Image Velocimetry

Particle image velocimetry (PIV) has become one of the most important tools for experimentally investigating the physics of fluid flows. In PIV, image-processing algorithms estimate flow velocity by measuring the displacements of flow-tracer particles suspended in a fluid. The fundamental operation...
