Pressure fields obtained using (a) acoustic and (b) elastic wave simulations (sagittal view). To decrease the simulation domain dimensions, a fictitious 11 cm diameter hemispherical surface source closer to the skull was used in which the simulated array elements radiated using the Rayleigh integral. Pressure field was lower near skull base in the elastic simulation compared to the acoustic simulation case (*). Norm.: Normalized.
