A Fast and Accurate
Wave Propagation Solver
WaveSim is a free and open-source solver that uses a radically different approach called the Modified Born Series (MBS) to simulate wave propagation in large, complex, inhomogeneous structures.
Solves Helmholtz or Maxwell equations, requiring no finite difference approximations, therefore, there is no numerical dispersion.
When benchmarking against state-of-the-art Finite-Difference Time-Domain (FDTD) optimized solver to simulate light propagation through a small structure (28 × 28 × 28 ≈ 2·104 cubic wavelengths), the prototype implementation of WaveSim is faster by a factor of 2000 while using only 1% of the memory.
Has the potential to revolutionize the simulation of electromagnetic, acoustic, and seismic waves. Learn More...
New Wavesim release
A new version of Wavesim was released on February 27 in github. The main feature of the new version is the use of a CUDA based acceleration module (cumex), that can provide speed-up optimisation of up to x2 times.
