Image Processing in the Undergraduate Fluid Dynamics Laboratory
نویسنده
چکیده
1 Easy access to video imaging, digital frame grabbing and image processing technology has opened up exciting opportunities in fluid mechanics education. This paper presents several examples of student work, and discusses new curricula based on these new developments. Complex, unsteady flows can now be quantified using multi-dimensional techniques. Image sequences can be stored and used in problem-solving. The author extrapolates these experiences to the hypothesis that image-based curricula can revolutionize fluid dynamics education, and permit the undergraduate to become familiar with fluids engineering technology, exploiting unsteady flows.

The Combinational Use Of Knowledge-Based Methods and Morphological Image Processing in Color Image Face Detection
The human facial recognition is the base for all facial processing systems. In this work a basicmethod is presented for the reduction of detection time in fixed image with different color levels.The proposed method is the simplest approach in face spatial localization, since it doesn’trequire the dynamics of images and information of the color of skin in image background. Inaddition, to do face...
متن کاملStatistical Wavelet-based Image Denoising using Scale Mixture of Normal Distributions with Adaptive Parameter Estimation
Removing noise from images is a challenging problem in digital image processing. This paper presents an image denoising method based on a maximum a posteriori (MAP) density function estimator, which is implemented in the wavelet domain because of its energy compaction property. The performance of the MAP estimator depends on the proposed model for noise-free wavelet coefficients. Thus in the wa...

متن کاملComparisons of Experimental and Simulated Velocity Fields in Membrane Module Spacers
Spacers are used in spiral wound and plate and frame membrane modules to create flow channels between adjacent membrane layers and mix fluid within the flow channel. Flow through the spacer has a significant beneficial impact on mixing and resulting mass transfer rates but is accompanied by an undesirable increase in pressure drop. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is a common tool used to eva...
