Acquisition of high speed camera and instrumentation suite for visualization and three dimensional field reconstruction

本提案旨在寻求资金，用于购买一套仪器，该仪器由两台能够分辨三维位置、速度和加速度的高速数码相机组成。相机是专门配备，使其在广泛的需求特别使用。该系统的应用范围从解决从0.1米/秒到800米/秒的任何地方移动的现象和解决从米到亚毫米的分辨率范围内的图像。两台Phantom v7相机能够以每秒4，800帧（FPS）的速度拍摄800 x600像素的图像，最高可达150，000 FPS。这项建议包括3个镜头的费用：一个50毫米和一个70- 200毫米的变焦透镜，用于较大尺度的物体;一个KC型长距离显微镜，用于分辨小尺度的物体。显微镜透镜与照相机配合使用，能够在4，800 FPS下产生0.0075 mm的分辨率;对于该尺寸范围内的研究（上文所列项目1、3、4和8）来说，这是绰绰有余的。捕获的图像将输入到软件包Tema 3D中，该软件包能够在选定基准点移动通过相机视场时解析其三维位置、速度和加速度。此功能对于解决上面列出的项目2、5、6、7和9所需的运动特别有用。三维能力需要两个摄像头。拟议的设备是便携式的，将在整个学年中几乎连续使用，用于研究、研究培训和教育目的。这些设备将由9名高级教师，几名研究生和大约70名本科生每年在两个实验室部分使用：测量和机电一体化实验室和热力学/流体/传热实验室。从这项投资中受益的研究项目通过各种来源获得资金，从Greenheck Fan，福特汽车公司，Rotor Finish，Rockwell Automation和Kimberly-Clark等行业赞助商到NSF和海军水面作战中心等政府机构。其中两个项目是由马奎特工程学院和机械工程系赞助的本科生研究培训。这种能力的更广泛的影响是提高我们为学生提供新的教育和研究培训机会的能力，吸引外部行业参与，推进几个研究项目。

ABSTRACTThis proposal is seeking funding for the purchase of an instrumentation suite composed of two high-speed digital cameras capable resolving three dimensional position, velocity and acceleration. The camera is specially outfitted to make it of particular use over a wide range of needs. Applications for this system vary from resolving phenomena which move anywhere from 0.1 m/s to 800 m/s and resolving images to a resolution ranging from meters to sub-millimeters. The cameras, two Phantom v7s, are capable of capturing 800x600 pixel images at 4,800 frames per second (FPS), up to 150,000 FPS. This proposal includes the cost of 3 lenses: a 50 mm and a 70-200mm zoom lens for larger scale objects and a model KC long distance microscope for resolving small scale objects. The microscope lens coupled with the camera is capable of producing a resolution of 0.0075 mm at 4,800 FPS; more than adequate for the studies in this size range, projects 1, 3, 4 and 8 listed above. The captured images will be the input to a software package, Tema3D, capable of resolving three dimensional position, velocity and acceleration of selected fiducial points as they move through the cameras field of view. This feature is especially useful for resolving motion required by projects 2, 5, 6, 7 and 9 listed above. The three dimensional capability requires two cameras. The proposed equipment is portable and will receive near continuous use through the academic year both for research, research training and educational purposes. The equipment will be used by 9 senior faculty members, several graduate students and approximately 70 undergraduate students per year in two lab sections: Measurement and Mechatronics Laboratory and Thermodynamic/Fluid/Heat Transfer Laboratory. The research projects benefiting form this investment are funded through a variety of sources from industry sponsors such as Greenheck Fan, Ford Motor Company, Rotor Finish, Rockwell Automation and Kimberly-Clark to governmental agencies such as NSF and the Naval Surface Warfare Center. Two of these projects represent undergraduate research training sponsored by the Marquette College of Engineering and the Mechanical Engineering Department. The broader impact of this capability is to enhance our ability to provide new educational and research training opportunities to our students, attract outside industry participation, move forward in several research programs.
