Title j-Wave: Differentiable acoustic simulations in JAX 
Description j-Wave is a library of simulators for acoustic applications. Is heavily inspired by k-Wave (a big portion of j-Wave is a port of k-Wave in JAX), and its intended to be used as a collection of modular blocks that can be easily included into any machine learning pipeline. Following the philosophy of JAX, j-Wave is developed with the following principles in mind: to be differentiable, to be fast via jit compilation, easy to run on GPUs, easy to customize.

Title jaxdf - JAX-based Discretization Framework 
Description jaxdf is a JAX-based package defining a coding framework for writing differentiable numerical simulators with arbitrary discretizations. The intended use is to build numerical models of physical systems, such as wave propagation, or the numerical solution of partial differential equations, that are easy to customize to the user's research needs. Such models are pure functions that can be included into arbitrary differentiable programs written in JAX: for example, they can be used as layers of neural networks, or to build a physics loss function.

Open Source License? Yes  
Impact jaxdf is being used by researchers interested in differentiable models, and forms the basis for the j-Wave acoustic simulation software.
