Hi,
is it possible using k-wave to simulate a high power focused ultrasound transducer? I mean in the focal region the local pressure amplitude will be high let's say 10^6 Pa so non linear effects are expected because the pressure is much higher than the atmospheric or surrounding DC pressure and absolute negative pressure is not expected.

Hi Steffen,
The current version of k-Wave (B.03) only models the linearized acoustic equations. However, we are currently working on a nonlinear version which should be out around mid-year.
