Abstract

Starting with a pair of signals obtained by electronically subtracting photodetector outputs from any VISAR, it is possible to plot velocity vs time, velocity vs distance, and distance vs time in 21/2 min using an LSI-11/23 computer. This includes time for six iterations of time shift with the resulting polar plots and operator interactions. The velocity calculating algorithm and a flow chart of the computer program are presented.
