3D Sound Wave Propagation

Preparing simulation

A 3D acoustics simulation that shows how sound travels through a medium. Learners can compare a directional speaker wave with a point-source spherical wave, tune frequency, amplitude, wavelength, and damping, and connect particle oscillation to pressure-wave propagation.
