• Background-oriented schlieren (BOS) techniques (2015, methodology): “A first step toward the determination of the density distribution by computation of the Poisson equation for BOS data of two-dimensional transonic flows has been presented by Richard et al. (2000) and Richard and Raffel (2001).”
• Evaluation of aero-optical distortion effects in PIV (2005, methodology): “…is directly equivalent to the position error of the measurement and is related to the gradient of the refractive index ∇ n. Applying BOS theory (Richard and Raffel 2001, Elsinga et al. 2004) gives for the optical displacement vector (using n≈1): ( ) ( ) ( , )D D S d x Z x Z n x z dzε= − = −…”
• Assessment and application of quantitative schlieren methods: Calibrated color schlieren and background oriented schlieren (2004, neutral): “Previous BOS applications (Klinge and Riethmuller 2002; Richard and Raffel 2001) also applied boundary conditions at both ends of the schlieren object.”
