Multi-Source Acoustic Arrays Induce Volumetric Bulk Cracking in Stone Analogues: A Phase-Field Computational Study with Implications for Next-Generation Lithotripters

2026-05-28

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) remains a non invasive option for urolithiasis, but its stone free rates are inferior to endoscopic alternatives, particularly for dense calculi. The physical mechanisms governing shock wave induced fracture—especially the role of multi source acoustic arrays—are incompletely understood. Furthermore, the presence of heavy metals (e.g., cadmium, lea...
