Using the physical quantity values previously defined, displacement maps along the Z axis were calculated 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, and 3.0 ms after force application, as illustrated in Figure \ref{figGreen}-(B). The displacement maps present many similarities to the experimental results of Figure \ref{figElastoPVA}-(B), with initial displacement directed towards the inside of the medium, and propagation of only two half cycles.  The ablative regime was also confirmed visually. At high power, a paler colored disk of the same size as the beam diameter appeared at the site of laser impact on the phantom, which is consistent with the theory of partial vaporization of the medium. This was not observed in the low-energy experiments.
