  • Abstract
    This paper presents a time domain model for simulating cMUT in fluid. Non linearity is taking into account and the collapse / snapback phenomena are modeled with a ¿thrust¿ model. Confrontation with another simulation tool is performed and comparison with experimental results is done.
