+This is an example using more advanced tools than the simple example [wiki:"Tutorial: Particle Image Velocimetry" Tutorial: Particle Image Velocimetry]. Image pre_processing and merging of mutiple fields is used to optimise PIV in the case of a narrow parietal jet (produced by convection in a cavity).
 Open the example UVMAT_DEMO6_PIVconvection (accessible on http://servforge.legi.grenoble-inp.fr/pub/soft-uvmat/).

 = sub_background =
 We observe parasitic light rays on the images which correspond to fixed features, leading possibly to spurious velocity vectors equal to 0. To eliminate those we use sub_bacground. 
 Open the image with 'series' and select the program 'sub_background'. This function is not provided in the default menu, so you need to use the last menu option 'more...', and select the function in the sub-folder 'series/' of the package uvmat. This option is then preserved in the menu for later use. 
-Then run sub_background over the whole index range in i and j, using the default parameters. Answer Yes to the quaestion 'apply levels', which will conveniently rescale the image brightness after background removal.

+
+Choose the pair 'j=1-2' which provides the smaller time interval (100 ms), a good choice to capture correlations in a first try (although higher precision can be obtained with a larger time interval if the correlation is still of good quality). 
+
+Select the Mask 'mask_1.png' previously created.
+
+Looking at the results with uvmat, we global flow fetures. We notice hower that the thin parietal plume is not properly resolved while the precision in the interior is poor because of the small displacement within the frame pair. So the next step will be to perform two PIV series optimized for each sub-region and merge them.

+It is also advised to introduce masks in the interpolation process so that each field is interpolated in its range of validity. This is done by selecting the option '''Mask'''. Use the browser to fill the table of masks, in accordance with the table of input file series.

+= merging data using thin plate shell = 
+The previously used linear interpolation does not provide field derivatives. For that purpose, we proceed as previouisly but use the option '''!ProjMode''' ='interp_tps' for the projection plane in '''set_object'''. 
+
+In the GUI '''series''', select simultaneously the fields vec(U,V), curl(U,V) and div(U,V) to get the vorticity and divergence in addition to velocity. The calculation is significantly longer that for interp_lin, so in the demo we use a resolution DX=DY=0.2 cm for the projection plane (instead of 0.1 cm).

+Open the resulting files with uvmat. Selct a vector (components U, V) or a scalar curl or div to visualize the different fields.
