4+
Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <https://fsf.org/>
5+
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
6+
of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
7+
8+
9+
This version of the GNU Lesser General Public License incorporates
10+
the terms and conditions of version 3 of the GNU General Public
11+
License, supplemented by the additional permissions listed below.
12+
13+
0. Additional Definitions.
14+
15+
As used herein, "this License" refers to version 3 of the GNU Lesser
16+
General Public License, and the "GNU GPL" refers to version 3 of the GNU
17+
General Public License.
18+
19+
"The Library" refers to a covered work governed by this License,
20+
other than an Application or a Combined Work as defined below.
21+
22+
An "Application" is any work that makes use of an interface provided
23+
by the Library, but which is not otherwise based on the Library.
24+
Defining a subclass of a class defined by the Library is deemed a mode
25+
of using an interface provided by the Library.
26+
27+
A "Combined Work" is a work produced by combining or linking an
28+
Application with the Library. The particular version of the Library
29+
with which the Combined Work was made is also called the "Linked
30+
Version".
31+
32+
The "Minimal Corresponding Source" for a Combined Work means the
33+
Corresponding Source for the Combined Work, excluding any source code
34+
for portions of the Combined Work that, considered in isolation, are
35+
based on the Application, and not on the Linked Version.
36+
37+
The "Corresponding Application Code" for a Combined Work means the
38+
object code and/or source code for the Application, including any data
39+
and utility programs needed for reproducing the Combined Work from the
40+
Application, but excluding the System Libraries of the Combined Work.
41+
42+
1. Exception to Section 3 of the GNU GPL.
43+
44+
You may convey a covered work under sections 3 and 4 of this License
45+
without being bound by section 3 of the GNU GPL.
46+
47+
2. Conveying Modified Versions.
48+
49+
If you modify a copy of the Library, and, in your modifications, a
50+
facility refers to a function or data to be supplied by an Application
51+
that uses the facility (other than as an argument passed when the
52+
facility is invoked), then you may convey a copy of the modified
53+
version:
54+
55+
a) under this License, provided that you make a good faith effort to
56+
ensure that, in the event an Application does not supply the
57+
function or data, the facility still operates, and performs
58+
whatever part of its purpose remains meaningful, or
59+
60+
b) under the GNU GPL, with none of the additional permissions of
61+
this License applicable to that copy.
62+
63+
3. Object Code Incorporating Material from Library Header Files.
64+
65+
The object code form of an Application may incorporate material from
66+
a header file that is part of the Library. You may convey such object
67+
code under terms of your choice, provided that, if the incorporated
68+
material is not limited to numerical parameters, data structure
69+
layouts and accessors, or small macros, inline functions and templates
70+
(ten or fewer lines in length), you do both of the following:
71+
72+
a) Give prominent notice with each copy of the object code that the
73+
Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are
74+
covered by this License.
75+
76+
b) Accompany the object code with a copy of the GNU GPL and this license
77+
document.
78+
79+
4. Combined Works.
80+
81+
You may convey a Combined Work under terms of your choice that,
82+
taken together, effectively do not restrict modification of the
83+
portions of the Library contained in the Combined Work and reverse
84+
engineering for debugging such modifications, if you also do each of
85+
the following:
86+
87+
a) Give prominent notice with each copy of the Combined Work that
88+
the Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are
89+
covered by this License.
90+
91+
b) Accompany the Combined Work with a copy of the GNU GPL and this license
92+
document.
93+
94+
c) For a Combined Work that displays copyright notices during
95+
execution, include the copyright notice for the Library among
96+
these notices, as well as a reference directing the user to the
97+
copies of the GNU GPL and this license document.
98+
99+
d) Do one of the following:
100+
101+
0) Convey the Minimal Corresponding Source under the terms of this
102+
License, and the Corresponding Application Code in a form
103+
suitable for, and under terms that permit, the user to
104+
recombine or relink the Application with a modified version of
105+
the Linked Version to produce a modified Combined Work, in the
106+
manner specified by section 6 of the GNU GPL for conveying
107+
Corresponding Source.
108+
109+
1) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the
110+
Library. A suitable mechanism is one that (a) uses at run time
111+
a copy of the Library already present on the user's computer
112+
system, and (b) will operate properly with a modified version
113+
of the Library that is interface-compatible with the Linked
114+
Version.
115+
116+
e) Provide Installation Information, but only if you would otherwise
117+
be required to provide such information under section 6 of the
118+
GNU GPL, and only to the extent that such information is
119+
necessary to install and execute a modified version of the
120+
Combined Work produced by recombining or relinking the
121+
Application with a modified version of the Linked Version. (If
122+
you use option 4d0, the Installation Information must accompany
123+
the Minimal Corresponding Source and Corresponding Application
124+
Code. If you use option 4d1, you must provide the Installation
125+
Information in the manner specified by section 6 of the GNU GPL
126+
for conveying Corresponding Source.)
127+
128+
5. Combined Libraries.
129+
130+
You may place library facilities that are a work based on the
131+
Library side by side in a single library together with other library
132+
facilities that are not Applications and are not covered by this
133+
License, and convey such a combined library under terms of your
134+
choice, if you do both of the following:
135+
136+
a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work based
137+
on the Library, uncombined with any other library facilities,
138+
conveyed under the terms of this License.
139+
140+
b) Give prominent notice with the combined library that part of it
141+
is a work based on the Library, and explaining where to find the
142+
accompanying uncombined form of the same work.
143+
144+
6. Revised Versions of the GNU Lesser General Public License.
145+
146+
The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
147+
of the GNU Lesser General Public License from time to time. Such new
148+
versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may
149+
differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
150+
151+
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the
152+
Library as you received it specifies that a certain numbered version
153+
of the GNU Lesser General Public License "or any later version"
154+
applies to it, you have the option of following the terms and
155+
conditions either of that published version or of any later version
156+
published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Library as you
157+
received it does not specify a version number of the GNU Lesser
158+
General Public License, you may choose any version of the GNU Lesser
159+
General Public License ever published by the Free Software Foundation.
160+
161+
If the Library as you received it specifies that a proxy can decide
162+
whether future versions of the GNU Lesser General Public License shall
163+
apply, that proxy's public statement of acceptance of any version is
164+
permanent authorization for you to choose that version for the
165+
Library.

# k-Wave: A MATLAB toolbox for the time-domain simulation of acoustic wave fields
2+
3+
[![License: LGPL v3](https://img.shields.io/badge/License-LGPL_v3-blue.svg)](LICENSE.txt)
4+
5+
## Overview
6+
7+
k-Wave is an open source MATLAB toolbox designed for the time-domain simulation of propagating acoustic waves in 1D, 2D, or 3D [1]. The toolbox has a wide range of functionality, but at its heart is an advanced numerical model that can account for both linear and nonlinear wave propagation, an arbitrary distribution of heterogeneous material parameters, and power law acoustic absorption.
8+
9+
The numerical model is based on the solution of three coupled first-order partial differential equations which are equivalent to a generalised form of the Westervelt equation [2]. The equations are solved using a k-space pseudospectral method, where spatial gradients are calculated using a Fourier collocation scheme, and temporal gradients are calculated using a k-space corrected finite-difference scheme. The temporal scheme is exact in the limit of linear wave propagation in a homogeneous and lossless medium, and significantly reduces numerical dispersion in the more general case.
10+
11+
Power law acoustic absorption is accounted for using a linear integro-differential operator based on the fractional Laplacian [3]. A split-field perfectly matched layer (PML) is used to absorb the waves at the edges of the computational domain. The main advantage of the numerical model used in k-Wave compared to models based on finite-difference time domain (FDTD) schemes is that fewer spatial and temporal grid points are needed for accurate simulations. This means the models run faster and use less memory. A detailed description of the model is given in the k-Wave User Manual and the references below.

16+
17+
## Installation Instructions
18+
19+
The k-Wave toolbox is installed by adding the `k-Wave` folder to the MATLAB path.
20+
21+
To update the path interactively, use the `Set Path` dialog box which is accessed by typing `pathtool` at the MATLAB command line. This dialog box can also be accessed using the `Set Path` button on the ribbon bar. Once the dialog box is open, the toolbox is installed by clicking `Add Folder`, selecting the k-Wave toolbox folder, and clicking `Save`. The toolbox can be uninstalled in the same fashion.
22+
23+
For Linux users, using the `Set Path` dialog box requires write access to `pathdef.m`. This file can be found under `<matlabroot>/toolbox/local`. To find where MATLAB is installed, type `matlabroot` at the MATLAB command line.
24+
25+
To update the path programmatically, add the line
26+
27+
```matlab
28+
addpath('<pathname>/k-Wave');
29+
```
30+
31+
to the `startup.m` file, where `<pathname>` is replaced with the location of the toolbox, and the slashes should be in the direction native to your operating system. If no `startup.m` file exists, create one, and save it in the MATLAB startup directory.
32+
33+
## Using The C++ Codes
34+
35+
Accelerated versions of the simulation functions written in C++/CUDA are also available. These are not included in the MATLAB toolbox. To use the C++/CUDA codes, the appropriate binaries (and library files if using Windows) should be downloaded from [k-wave.org/download.php](http://www.k-wave.org/download.php) and placed in the `k-Wave/binaries` folder of the toolbox.
36+
37+
## Documentation And Examples
38+
39+
After installation, you should see the k-Wave help files in the MATLAB help browser by selecting **k-Wave Toolbox** from the list of **Supplemental Software** on the contents page. If you can't see **k-Wave Toolbox** in the contents list of the MATLAB help browser, try typing `help k-Wave` at the command prompt to see if the toolbox has been installed correctly.
40+
41+
After installation, to make the k-Wave documentation searchable from within the MATLAB help browser, run
42+
43+
```matlab
44+
builddocsearchdb(getkWavePath('helpfiles'));
45+
```
46+
47+
Note, the created database file will only work with the version of MATLAB used to create it.
48+
49+
## Getting Started
50+
51+
Regardless of your intended application for the k-Wave Toolbox, the easiest way to get started is to work through the **Initial Value Problems** examples in the MATLAB help browser, in particular the **Homogeneous Propagation Medium** example. This gives a step-by-step introduction to the way the simulation functions within k-Wave work. Each of the examples comes with an accompanying m-file which can be opened or run from within the help file.
52+
53+
There is additional information on the functions and algorithms used in k-Wave in the k-Wave Manual (this can be downloaded from [k-wave.org/documentation.php](http://www.k-wave.org/documentation.php)). The manual includes a general introduction to the governing equations and numerical methods used in the main simulation functions in k-Wave. It also provides a basic overview of the software architecture and a number of canonical examples. The manual has a different emphasis to the MATLAB documentation, thus it can be beneficial when starting with k-Wave to read both in parallel.
54+
55+
## Getting Help
56+
57+
If you have any feedback or comments, or wish to report bugs, obtain help, or request new features, please visit the k-Wave forum at [k-wave.org/forum](http://www.k-wave.org/forum).
