Modeling ultrasonic waves in solid media

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hello,
I am a beginner in comsol and I want to model a problem involving the propagation of elastic waves in bounded solid media. The goal is to obtain the displacement field in some point chosen to simulate the receiving sensor position. I have found a youtube tutorial performed in Abaqus www.youtube.com/watch?v=5DhhK2e_vY4 but nothing similar using Comsol. I am intereste in simulating Lamb-waves propagation as well as p-waves.
Do I have to use the Solid mechanic module or the acoustic module?
Thanks in advance. Your help would be really appreciated.

Giulia
