Particle Image Velocimetry Analysis On Simple Soil-Structured Interaction

Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) has been widely used in fluids analysis. Studies have been carried out to adapt the image processing method into physical characteristics of soil displacement in geotechnical engineering. This study focused on the applications of PIV into measuring and observing the...
