Required parameters

NAME: Set this parameter equal to a label that will be used to refer to the incident wave interaction property in the INCIDENT WAVE INTERACTION option.

TYPE

Set TYPE=PLANE (default) to specify a planar incident wave.

Set TYPE=SPHERE to specify a spherical incident wave.

Set TYPE=DIFFUSE to specify a field of planar waves incident from multiple angles.

Set TYPE=AIR BLAST to specify a spherical blast wave. This option is applicable only in an Abaqus/Explicit analysis.

Set TYPE=SURFACE BLAST to specify a hemispherical blast wave. This option is applicable only in an Abaqus/Explicit analysis.

First (and only) line

$c_{f}$ , the speed of sound in the fluid, defining the rate of propagation of the wave.
$ρ_{f}$ , the fluid mass density.

First (and only) line

$c_{f}$ , the speed of sound in the fluid, defining the rate of propagation of the wave.
$ρ_{f}$ , the fluid mass density.
$A$ , dimensionless decay parameter ( $A > - 1$ ). The default is 0.
$B$ , dimensionless decay parameter ( $B > - 1$ ). The default is 0.
$C$ , dimensionless decay parameter ( $C \geq 0$ ). The default is 0.

First (and only) line

$c_{f}$ , the speed of sound in the fluid, defining the propagation speed of the waves.
$ρ_{f}$ , the fluid mass density.
N, the seed number for the diffuse source calculation: $N^{2}$ sources will be used in the simulation.
