How a source may be added to the kspaceFirstOrder3D function using the kWaveTransducer class?
As the source input for the kspaceFirstOrder3D function can be given in terms of pressure or velocity, I am unable to understand how the output of the kWaveTransducer class is providing the source.p_mask and source.p values (or source.v_mask and source.v values)?
Please help.
The kWaveTransducer class sets the normal particle velocity in the direction that the transducer is facing.
Dear Dr. Treeby,
Thank you for your reply.
could you please help me with the following follow-up question?
How do we get the velocity profile for a particular configuration and input of the transducer?
I wanted to understand the relationship between the transducer's configuration, input signal, and particle velocity.
I want to calculate the pressure or velocity field by the transducer so that I could use it as the initial condition for the function kspaceFirstOrder3D.
could you please suggest any article for the same?
If you open the code kspaceFirstOrder3D you can see where the transducer source is applied on line 889 (v1.4.0). The scaled source term is added to the x-component of the particle velocity.
