In fluid mechanics,students will have learnt about flow through constrictions when dealing with flow meters.Figure 2 shows the measured relationship between flow rate and pressure drop with the valvefully open for a particular valve. Over most of the flow regime, the flow is laminar and so therelationship may be represented by Q = Cv(x).∆PHere Q is the volumetric flow rate, Cv is the valve coefficient, x is

(Instrument and VR)To check whether a significant difference between score means, a paired samples t-test wasperformed. To test the normality assumption, Shapiro-Wilk normality test was conducted on thescore differences for the matched-pairs along with the test statistic and p-value found to be, W =0.925 and p = .121 respectively. Figure 11 displays the Q-Q plot for the score differences. Bothtest and plot suggested that the distribution of data was not significantly different from the normaldistribution.

Optical Flow8,9 and Block Matching algorithms10,11 are relatively easy toimplement. However, both algorithms are derived based on the assumption that target objectdoes not rotate and deform through motion. Clearly, this assumption is not applicable toproblems encountered in the mechanics of material. With the assist of finite strain theory andnonlinear optimization theory, the concept of DIC can be described as follows.The deformation of an elastic body takes place between non-deformed and deformedconfigurations after motion and deformation is schematically presented in Fig. 1. Consider apoint P in the non-deformed body translates to point p through translation 𝑈⃗ . Due to theadditional rigid body rotation and deformation, the target point Q in

The assumption of normalitywas tested via examination of the residuals. Review of the Shapiro–Wilk (S-W) test fornormality and skewness and kurtosis statistics suggest whether or not normality was a reasonableassumption. The boxplot of the residuals is analyzed for a relatively normal distributional shape.The Q–Q plot and histogram are also examined for normality. The assumption of homogeneityof variance (homoscedasticity) is tested by conducting Levene’s test.Random assignment of individuals to

the gage, a rosette gives three normal strains. These three normal strains are converted to the two normal and one shear strain using the strain transformation equation. This is: e q = e x cos 2 q + e y sin 2 q + g xy sin q cosq Since e x , e y , and g xy are the necessary strains, this equation will be written three times, once for each strain gage. These three equations will then be solved for the three unknowns, e x , e y , and g xy . For a 45° strain rosette assuming that the x- axis is along the long axis of the center gage, this becomes: e 45° = e x cos 2 45 + e y sin 2 45 + g xy sin 45 cos 45 e - 45° = e x cos 2 (-45) + e y sin 2 (-45
