Synthetic Image generator for Image Velocimetry

As you probably know my work is related with Particle Tracking Velocimetry(PTV). Currently I'm developing new 2D and 3D algorithm. Normally, I was using the synthetics images of the Visualization Society of Japan, but I needed some special characteristics in the image that were no available. To solve this I create a Synthetic image generator for Matlab. To use it, is necessary to introduce a velocity distribution, for instance the results of Large Eddy Simulation (LES). The equations were taken from the book: "Particle Image Velocimetry" written by Mr. Raffel. If some one need the source code, please do not hesitate to contact me.
