If you try the same simulation with the fluid code does it look as you expect?</p> <p>You could try comparing with <a href="http://www.simsonic.fr">SimSonic</a> if you want to double check.</p> <p>Brad </p> http://www.k-wave.org/forum/topic/skull-simulation-using-pstdelastic2d#post-7527 Tue, 26 May 2020 21:41:31 +0000 omidyj 7527@http://www.k-wave.org/forum/ <p>Hi,<br /> I am trying to model the ultrasonic wave propagation inside a slab of skull micro-CT. However, it seems that the results are either unstable (with 150 points per wavelength) or not accurate; especially for the shear wave propagation. I tested a pure bone block and the results are pretty reasonable however when the bone block is replaced by the skull micro-CT it does not look accurate. I was wondering if the elastic version of k-wave is suitable for modeling a highly heterogeneous media when there is a significant difference between the acoustical properties of tissue and scatterers (bone and water in this case).<br /> Thank you in advance for your help! </p>
