Basic wave equation

Define $ \textbf{x}=(x,y,z)$ , time $ t$ , the $ s$ -th energy source function $ \tilde{S}(\textbf{x},t;\textbf{x}_s) $ , pressure $ p(\textbf{x},t; \textbf{x}_s)$ , particle velocity $ \textbf{v}(\textbf{x},t) $ , material density $ \rho(\textbf{x}) $ , the bulk modulus $ \kappa(\textbf{x})$ . Now we have

$ \bullet$ Newton's law

$\displaystyle \rho(\textbf{x})\frac{\partial\textbf{v}(\textbf{x},t;\textbf{x}_s)}{\partial t}=\nabla p(\textbf{x},t;\textbf{x}_s).$ (1)

$ \bullet$ Constitutive law

$\displaystyle \frac{1}{\kappa(\textbf{x})}\frac{\partial p(\textbf{x},t;\textbf...
...dot \textbf{v}(\textbf{x},t;\textbf{x}_s)+\tilde{S}(\textbf{x},t;\textbf{x}_s).$ (2)
