ripples in time

thingiverse

Here are some wave patterns generated using ANSYS macros, which are included as attachments. I will share more high-resolution images upon printing. Additional patterns may be added over time. Note that mathematical calculations have been adjusted to prevent an infinite spike at the center, which is a phenomenon observed in real raindrops known as "backjet." The spike height in a raindrop is believed to be limited by surface tension, water viscosity, and other minor factors.
