Detection of fluid motion direction based on the rotational Doppler effect of grafted perfect vortex beam
Abstract:
Vortex beams have attracted much attention due to their unique rotational Doppler effect. With the in-depth study of vortex beams, many new vortex beams have been proposed gradually, while the detection of fluid motion is of great significance for the study of ocean turbulence. Based on the rotational Doppler effect of the grafted perfect vortex beam, we propose a non-embedded optical method for real-time detection of the magnitude and direction of fluid velocity and establish a two-dimensional fluid model for simulation verification. It is proved that the grafted perfect vortex beam can detect the magnitude and direction of the fluid velocity at the same time, which may provide a new way and theoretical support for the detection of fluid motion direction.

Relative Motion Analysis - Velocity
When an external force is exerted, it sets the crank into a rotational movement. This, in turn, instigates the motion of the connecting rod, leading to what is referred to as a general plane motion. This process involves two key points - point A on the connecting rod...
