About the Wave Acoustics Simulator

The Wave Acoustics Simulator, a.k.a. W.A.S., is a leading 2D simulation tool that focuses on visualization and rapid prototyping. It is designed to bring acoustics to architects, planners, educators and students alike.

WAS

The following list summarizes the main features of the Wave Acoustics Simulator:

  • Visualization of sound pressure field and point responses, particle velocity and RMS time average fields

  • Easy drawing/editing of model geometry

  • different types of sound pressure sources available such as the sinusoidal, pulse or noise sources

  • Import .dxf geometry

  • Save .csv data to disk for processing with other software (like Python, MATLAB or spreadsheets)

  • Audio output (.wav)

  • Save animation to disk (.gif format suitable for MS Powerpoint)
