Image Processing Methods in Applied Mechanics

The EUROMECH 406 Colloquium aims to create a common platform for groups working on development and application of modern image acquisition and image processing methods in fluid and solid mechanics. Recent progress in image recording and analysis techniques has introduced revolutionary changes into experimental methods in mechanics. However, we often observe that the development of image processing techniques in both fields of mechanics proceeds on parallel paths, very often solving similar problems without knowing from each others work. The EUROMECH 406 meeting should help participants to gain knowledge and allow critical assessment of similarities or differences between image processing methods used in applied mechanics today
