Computer-integrated finite element modeling of human middle ear

Abstract: The objective of this study was to produce an improved finite element (FE) model of the human middle ear and to compare the model with human data. We began with a systematic and accurate geometric modeling technique for reconstructing the middle ear from serial sections of a freshly frozen temporal bone. A geometric model of a human middle ear was constructed in a computer-aided design (CAD) environment with particular attention to geometry and microanatomy. Using the geometric model, a working FE model of the… Show more

“…Some authors have used orthotropic models for the pars tensa and assigned different Young's moduli in the radial and circumferential directions (e.g., Sun et al 2002). Some studies have used hyperelastic (e.g., Aernouts et al 2010) or visco-hyperelastic (Motallebzadeh et al 2013) constitutive equations for the pars tensa.…”

“…Sound-induced TM vibration has been measured at the umbo using laser Doppler vibrometry (LDV) (Goode 1994;Whittemore et al 2004;Gan et al 2004a;2006b;Dai et al 2007Dai et al , 2008Rosowski et al 2003Rosowski et al , 2008 and analyzed using finite element (FE) models of the ear (Funnell et al 1987;Puria and Allen 1998;Koike et al 2002;Sun et al 2002;Gan et al 2004bWang et al 2007;Zhang and Gan 2011). However, single-point measurements cannot provide information about complex TM surface motion and the properties of sound wave propagation across the TM.…”

Los patrones de transmisión de fuerzas y su mecánica han sido también estudiados con modelos matemáticos que reconstruyen las formas particulares de los huesecillos para su posterior procesamiento a través de estudios de elemento finito (Tonndorf & Khanna, 1972;Aycan et al, 1990;Sun et al, 2002, Morris et al, 2004. Parece haber un interés común en la morfología y morfometría de la cadena de oscículos del oído medio en humanos, con fines quirúrgicos, pero también en el diseño y la reconstrucción de implantes electromagnéticos, usando medidas precisas que logran reproducir la transmisión de la energía sonora.…”
