Every folder contains:<br>
-    a tif-file with captured image series<br>
-    a PIV*-folder with four PIV-files for every frame pair. The four files belong to intermediate results of the multistep PIV. The final PIV-result is given in the file step2*.dat.nmt.<br>
        The PIV result will be stored in a plain text file. Each line in this file correspond to each PIV vector and comprised of 16 columns:<br>
        x     y     ux1     uy1     mag1     ang1     p1    ux2     uy2     mag2     ang2     p2     ux0     uy0     mag0     flag<br>
        -- (x,y) is the position of the vector (center of the interrogation window).<br>
        -- ux1, uy1 are the x and y component of the vector (displacement) obtained from the 1st correlation peak.<br>
        -- mag1 is the magnitude (norm) of the vector.<br>
        -- ang1, is the angle between the current vector and the vector interpolated from previous PIV iteration.<br>
        -- p1 is the correlation value of the 1st peak.<br>
        -- ux2,uy2,mag2,ang2,p2 are the values for the vector obtained from the 2nd correlation peak.<br>
        -- ux0, uy0, mag0 are the vector value at (x,y) interpolated from previous PIV iteration.<br>
        -- flag is a column used for mark whether this vector value is interpolated (marked as 999) or switched between 1st and 2nd peak (marked as 21), or invalid (-1). <br>

        Note that due to the simulation being 2D, rx=constant and vx=0=fx.<br>
