Wave‑Series Ultrasound Simulation Software

Built for Demanding Scientific and Engineering Workflows

CyberLogic’s Wave‑Series provides precise, physics‑based simulation of ultrasound propagation in:

• Non-destructive testing and materials evaluation
• Ultrasound imaging and biomedical tissue characterization
• Transducer design studies
• Geophysics
• Theoretical and applied research
• Academic/Educational

Features:

• Full time domain solution to the visco-elastic wave equation
• Import a 3D object of any shape from an STL file (Wave3000 Plus only)
• Includes modeling of the piezoelectric aspects of a problem (Plus versions only).
• Includes modeling for orthotropic materials (Plus version only).
• Allows for sources having prescribed time-dependent displacement or pressure input signals.
• Arbitrary (voxel by voxel for 3D and pixel by pixel for 2D/3D-axisymmetric problems) material object description
• Models longitudinal and shear propagation in solids and longitudinal in liquids, including mode conversions, as well as the coupled piezo-electric waves (Plus version only).
• Accounts for frequency dependent attenuation (viscous losses)
• Allows for a variety of source and receiver transducer configurations, as well as arbitrary boundary conditions
• Allows receiver measurements of displacement, pressure, velocity and acceleration.
• Allows transmitter and receiver arrays to be defined.
• Infinite (absorbing) boundary conditions, allowing the simulation of "infinite media."
• Wave simulation "playback" including "single stepping" through simulation.
• Extensive material libraries, including a wide range of solids, liquids and gases.
• Large selection of transducer apodizations, including Hamming, Hanning and Gaussian weighting functions (among others).
• Batch processing (making "unattended simulations" possible).
• Automatic multiprocessor capability can almost linearly speed up simulation.
• "Data Export" facility, making saving of simulation measurements even easier.
• Ability to define sources with "void" backings, making it easier to simulate sources located within an object.
• Option to select a higher order numerical algorithm allowing for fewer grid elements.
• Ability to associate an arbitrary user-defined waveform for each source.
• "Point-source" option (displacement only).
• 64 bit support for PC's running Windows x64.

CyberLogic Ultrasonic Simulation Software Overview

CyberLogic® has five (5) software packages: Wave2000®, Wave2000® Plus , Wave2500™, Wave3000™ and Wave3000™ Plus.These software packages have been purchased by engineers and scientists at companies and academic institutions from around the world, including Japan, England, France, Denmark, Finland, Sweden, Germany, Korea, Czech Republic, Switzerland, Poland, Spain, Portugal, Greece, Belgium, Lithuania, Israel, Australia, India, China, Taiwan, Canada and the United States. Leading universities (e.g., Stanford, University of California at Berkeley, MIT, Penn State, Ohio State, University of Texas, Indian Institute of Science, Cambridge, Oxford, University of Paris, City College (CUNY), Columbia University and McGill), U.S. Government Labs (e.g., Los Alamos, Argonne National, and U.S. Air Force Labs) and regulatory agencies (e.g., U.S. FDA) have purchased our ultrasound simulation software. The software is finding applications in biomedical ultrasonics, non-destructive testing, and geophysics. One of the world's leaders in the field of ultrasonic NDT, GE Inspection Technologies, uses Wave2000® in its work.

A quick look at the simulation software

Wave2000®, an enhanced 2D ultrasound simulation package. Wave2000® now offers batch processing, multiprocessor capability, and pressure (in addition to displacement) computation.

Wave2000® Plus, our new software for 2D modelling piezoelectric and orthotropic materials. This version also allows the specification of a time-dependent pressure (force) transducer. These features will be useful, for example, in the design and computational analysis of ultrasound transducers.

Wave3000™, our full 3D simulation package, with a 64 bit version for expanded memory capacity. Wave3000™, our 3D ultrasound simulation package, provides the 3D solution to ultrasound propagation, and is also compatible with multiprocessor systems.

Wave2500™, a 3D-axisymmetric ultrasound simulation package.Wave2500™ computes ultrasound solutions for objects and sources that are axisymmetric.
