Simulation scheme for shear wave motion calculation. The transducer parameters are used to calculate the three-dimensional (3D) ARF push beam. The force is applied to the FE model and once completed, the motion is extracted. An optional step to simulate the ultrasonic tracking of the motion can be implemented. The motion is then used in post-processing algorithms to estimate the wave speeds and material properties. The original material property parameters can be used for error calculations and a final report is generated.
