Abstract
New quantitative data processing methods could enable ultrasound as a potential diagnostic method for hip implant integration monitoring. For development of such methods, suitable acoustic simulation tools are essential. In this work, a novel 1D FDTD simulation tool for multilayer structures, considering frequency-dependent properties, is introduced, particularly meeting the special needs of this application. Simulation results show excellent agreement with experimental data, confirming accurate prediction of wave propagation in multilayer systems.
