Abstract

A finite element model is implemented for simulating the radiated fields of both planar and curved transducers in acoustic media. The approach is based on general finite element analysis developed for solving the governing equations of elastic wave propagation. The distributions of the wave fields are presented for both the nearfield and farfield regions of the transducer. Three excitation pulses with the same center frequency but different bandwidths are examined and the accuracy is indicated by a comparison of the simulation results for the axial and transverse fields with the analytical results for continuous wave excitation.
