Eighth International Symposium on Applications of Laser Techniques to FluidMechanics. Volume II. July 8th to 11th 1996, Lisbon, Portugal

摘要

The proceedings volumes I and II comprised the papers that were accepted forpresentation at the Eighth International Symposium on Applications of Laser Techniques to Fluid Mechanics, which was held at The Calouste Gulbenkian in Lisbon, during the period of July 8 to 11, 1996. The prime objective of this Eighth Symposium is to provide a forum for the presentation of the most advanced research on laser techniques for flow measurements, and reveal significant results to fluid mechanics. The applications of laser techniques to scientific and engineering fluid flow research is emphasised, but contributions to the theory and practice of laser methods are also considered where they facilitate new improved fluid mechanic research. Attention is focused on laser-Doppler anemometry, particle sizing and other methods for the measurement of velocity and scalars, such as particle image velocimetry and laser induced fluorescence.
