Abstract
A computationally efficient model capable of simulating finite-amplitude ultrasound beam propagation in water and in tissue from phased linear arrays and other transducers of arbitrary quasiplanar geometry is described. It is based on a second-order operator splitting approach [Tavakkoli et al., J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 104, 2061-2072 (1998)], with a fractional step-marching scheme, whereby the effects of diffraction, attenuation, and nonlinearity can be computed independently over incremental steps. This approach is an extension to that of Christopher and Parker [J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 90, 507-521; 90, 488-499 (1991)], wherein linear and nonlinear effects are propagated separately over incremental steps, and the computation of the diffractive substeps are based on an angular spectrum technique with a modified sampling scheme for accurate and efficient implementation of diffractive propagation from nonradially symmetric sources. Results of the model are compared with published data. Predicted field profiles for nonlinear propagation in tissue from realistic array transducers using the pulse inversion method are presented.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
