Westervelt Equation Simulation on Manifold using DEC

Numerical Analysis 2010-01-14 v1

Abstract

The Westervelt equation is a model for the propagation of finite amplitude ultrasound. The method of discrete exterior calculus can be used to solve this equation numerically. A significant advantage of this method is that it can be used to find numerical solutions in the discrete space manifold and the time, and therefore is a generation of finite difference time domain method. This algorithm has been implemented in C++.
