GPIV_VORSTRA(1) 					      General Commands Manual						   GPIV_VORSTRA(1)

NAME
gpiv_vorstra - Calculates the differential quantities vorticity, shear strain and normal strain from PIV data. SYNOPSIS
gpiv_vorstra [-d N] [-h | --help] [-n | -o | -s] [--no_g ] [-p | --print] [-g | --g] [-v | --version] [filename] < stdin > stdout DESCRIPTION
gpiv_vorstra calculates the differential quantities like vorticity, shear strain and normal strain from PIV data. You can choose from sev- eral differential schemes: central differentiation, least squares, Richardson extrapolation and circulation method. Circulation method only allows one to calculate vorticity, but no strain. The output can be generated as ASCII data containing four columns or as GNUPlot Data for- mat that allows one to view/print the data as contour plots. The configuration parameters (containing the POST key) may be overruled by the command line options, as explained below. Options -d N Differential type to be used: central difference (N=0), least squares (N=1), Richardson interpolation (N=2), circulation method (N=3) -h | --help On-line help -n Calculate normal strain of the PIV data. As an alternative the program may be called by its nickname gpiv_nstrain. In combination with filename the output will be written to filename.nstr. -o Calculate vorticity of the PIV data. As an alternative the program may be called by its nickname gpiv_vorty. In combination with filename the output will be written to filename.vor. -p | --print Print parameters, command line options and eventually used input and output filenames to stdout. The output is identic of file- name.par, in case filename is used. -s Calculate shear strain of the PIV data. As an alternative the program may be called by its nickname sstrain. In combination with filename the output will be written to filename.sstr. -g Show contour plot of the output with gnuplot. --no_g Suppresses to show contour plot of the output with gnuplot. -v | --version Print version information on standard output, then exit successfully. filename Input PIV data file. Overrides stdin and stdout. The output will be written to filename.vor with -o, filename.nstr with -n or file- name.sstr with -s. Parameters are stored in filename.par and may be used for future use by including them in ./gpivrc. SEE ALSO

GPIV_IMGPROC(1) 					      General Commands Manual						   GPIV_IMGPROC(1)

NAME
gpiv_imgproc - Image processing program for (PIV) images. SYNOPSIS
gpiv_imgproc [-b N] [--filter N] [-h | --help] [-p | --print] [-o N | --operation N] [-t N | --threshold N] [-w N] [-v | --version] [file- name] < stdin > stdout DESCRIPTION
gpiv_imgproc processes, filters or converts images in order to improve the interrogation for Particle Image Velocimetry. gpiv_smooth: smoothing filter, gpiv_hilo : high-low filter, gpiv_clip: clipping, gpiv_fft: Fast Fourier Transform, gpiv_invfft: Inverse Fast Fourier Transform, gpiv_highpass: high-pass filtering gpiv_getbit: get bit bumber. gpiv_mktestimg: generates test image-pair for PIV The parameters read from the configuration resources (containing the key GPIV_IMGPROC) may be overruled by the command line options, as explained below. Options -b N In case of using gpiv_getbit N denotes the bit number [0, .., 7] --filter N Image filter to be applied: make test image (N=0), smoothing (N=1), high-low filtering (N=2), clipping (N=3), fft (N=4), inverse fft (N=5), lowpass filter (N=8), highpass filter (N=9), getbit (N=10). -h | --help On-line help -o N | --operation N In case of using gpiv_smooth: set pixel equal to the mean of the window value (N0), subtract mean from from pixel (N1) add (N2), multiply (N3) or divide (N4) -t N | --threshold N In case of using gpiv_clip: threshold value to be set to zero -v | --version Print version information on standard output, then exit successfully. -w N window size (default: 15) filename Input image filename. Overrides stdin and stdout with the full filename of the image. Output will be written to filename.png. Param- eters are stored in filename.par and may be used for future use by including them in ./gpivrc. If stdin and stdout are used, the input is expected to be a PNG formatted image.
