Help with With Physics Problems in waves

[Codehammer]

Hi,

This is Part of Our C.Science Project and is Due in 3 Weeks Time. All Year we Have Developed the System and we Still Have a Problem with the Wave Bouncing Back after Hitting the Edges. The Link Below Shows I've Tried to Ask These Graphic Developers but what They've Given us Still is not Enough.
To All the People Receiving this Mail, Either you, or Someone who you Know who can Help with This Problem please FWD it to Them and Let me Know.

Thanks

Mirroring a wave to cancel it out means allow the bouncing to occur, but when the wave bounces, cancel out the rest of the wave. Like dropping a large rock into a small jug of water. The water will move out to the sides in waves, the front wave will hit the side, bounce back and cancel out the trailing waves. This in turn, won't fix your problem.

Without seeing the rest of the code, I doubt I'd be any further help. Even then, I'm pretty crappy with maths. The way I see it, is if the wave reaches h or v, then destroy it.

Maybe its the insomnia talking.
