Abstract
With the advent of digital computers, wave field problems are best solved by computers. Present paper introduces a physical model for wave propagation, which is traced on the computer based on the mechanism equivalent to the Huygens’ principle. The approach does not require the numerical solution of the differential equation or wave equation which is the mathematical model of the wave propagation phenomena. It only requires the manipulation tracing the sequence of the impulse scattering at the discretized nodes due to the Huygens’ principle. The paper describes the discrete Huygens’ modelling for the acoustic field and demonstrates the some applied examples.
