“…For example, sequenced colour illumination combined with colour imaging has been used in PIV to resolve directional ambiguity [13], phases in twophase flows [14], and for unambiguously colour coding long particle tracks, useful in measuring recycling and turbulent flows [15]. For increasing spatial information in particle velocimetry, two overlapping lightsheets of different colours have been used to obtain 3/2D-3C PIV [16][17][18]. However, as with a similar scheme based on a single monochromatic lightsheet with graded irradiance [6], extraction of the third spatial dimension with these schemes is very sensitive to absolute image intensity, which is practically difficult to control when imaging scattering particles.…”
