   Good day,

   I'm new to the k-wave toolbox, and ultrasound in general. I have 2 questions and the nonlinear acoustics section seemed to be the best fit, apologies if these questions are better suited to a different section.

   Firstly, I'm a little lost with regards to the relationship between source delays and their respective focal point. Is there a function that defines this relationship? Perhaps there is some literature, within k-wave or academia?

   Secondly is there an existing architecture for applying the acousto-electric effect in k-wave?

   Thank you in advance, this community seems great.

   Best,
   Conor

   Hi Conor,

   Do you mean the source delays, e.g., as used in a diagnostic ultrasound transducer? In this case, it's just based on the geometry and travel time from each element to the desired focus.

   Nothing built into k-Wave to model the acoustic-electric effect.

   Brad.
