The 2-D digital waveguide mesh

An extremely efficient method for modeling wave propagation in a membrane is provided by the multidimensional extension of the digital waveguide. The 2-D digital waveguide mesh is constructed out of bi-directional delay units and scattering junctions. We show that it coincides with the standard finite difference scheme in the lossless case. Wave propagation in the mesh is compared with wave propagation in an ideal membrane; the dissipation and dispersion error is derived.<
