RISPressure Distribution in a Simplified Human Ear Model for High Intensity Sound Transmission
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: High intensity noise/impulse transmission through a bench model consisting of the simplified ear canal, eardrum, and middle ear cavity was investigated using the CFX/ANSYS software package with fluidstructure interactions. ...
Dynamic Properties of Human Stapedial Annular Ligament Measured With Frequency–Temperature Superposition
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Stapedial annular ligament (SAL) is located at the end of human ear ossicular chain and provides a sealed but mobile boundary between the stapes footplate and cochlear fluid. Mechanical properties of the SAL directly affect ...
Dynamic Properties of Tympanic Membrane in a Chinchilla Otitis Media Model Measured With Acoustic Loading
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Otitis media is the most common infectious disease in young children, which results in changes in the thickness and mechanical properties of the tympanic membrane (TM) and induces hearing loss. However, there are no published ...
Multiscale Finite Element Modeling of Human Ear for Acoustic Wave Transmission Into Cochlea and Hair Cells Fatigue Failure
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Hearing loss is highly related to acoustic injuries and mechanical damage of ear tissues. The mechanical responses and failures of ear tissues are difficult to measure experimentally, especially cochlear hair cells within ...
