چکیده

The finite difference time domain (FDTD) method is commonly used as a numerically accurate way of propagating sound. However, it requires extensive computation. We present a simple method for accelerating FDTD. Specifically, we modify the FDTD update loop to prioritize computation where it is needed most in order to faithfully propagate waves through the simulated space. We estimate for each potential cell update its importance to the simulation output and only update theN most important cells, whereN is dependent on the time available for computation. In this paper, we explain the algorithm and discuss how it can bring enhanced accuracy and dynamism to real-time audio propagation.

Wave propagation theory in offshore applications

A frequency-wavenumber-domain formulation is presented in this paper for calculation of the Green's functions and wave propagation modes in a stratified fluid body underlain by a layered viscoelastic soil medium. The Green's functions define the solid and fluid displacements and fluid pressures due to uniform disk loads acting in either the soil or fluid media. The solution is in the frequency ...
