This proposal is for the acquisition of a Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) system for a variety of studies involving complex fluids including investigating flows of non-Newtonian fluids, suspensions and fluid flow in complex geometries. These studies are pertinent in applications throughout biology, engineering and geophysics. The investigators who will utilize this instrument represent different disciplines within the College of Science and Mathematics and also Art & Design at Montclair State University such as Physics (Drs. Vaidya,Truitt), Applied Mathematics(Drs. Forgoston, Mukherjee, Trubatch and Yecko), Biology (Dr. Vanderklein), Computer Science (Dr. Robila ) and Photography (Prof. Schnitzer). The PIV system will be housed in and become an integral part of the Complex Fluids Lab in room 224B of the Mathematical Sciences department. The specific targets for study include (i) vortex induced oscillations, (ii) flows of ferromagnetic fluids and liquid crystals, (iii) geophysical flows and (iv) flow in plants. The PIV system will enable the PIs to obtain high quality flow data for a set of research problems where critical progress demands more information on spatial and temporal scales, obtained non-invasively. The high speed camera will provide experimentally relevant temporal tracking of flow patterns.

该建议是为涉及复杂流体的各种研究，包括调查非牛顿流体，悬浮液和复杂几何形状的流体流动的粒子图像测速（PIV）系统的收购。这些研究在整个生物学、工程学和物理学中的应用是相关的。将使用该仪器的研究人员代表科学与数学学院以及州立大学蒙特克莱尔艺术设计学院的不同学科，如物理学（Vaidya，Truitt博士），应用数学（Forgoston，Mukherjee，Trubatch和Yecko博士），生物学（Vanderklein博士），计算机科学（Robila博士）和摄影（Schnitzer教授）。PIV系统将被安置在数学科学系224 B室的复杂流体实验室中，并成为该实验室不可分割的一部分。研究的具体目标包括（i）涡激振荡，（ii）铁磁流体和液晶的流动，（iii）地球物理流动和（iv）植物中的流动。PIV系统将使PI能够获得一组研究问题的高质量流量数据，其中关键的进展需要更多的空间和时间尺度上的信息，非侵入性地获得。高速摄像机将提供实验相关的流动模式的时间跟踪。
