“…Skrodzka [ 37 ] used a cochlear FEM to predict travelling wave patterns and characteristic frequencies by simulating BM structural damage. Mechanical damage to the BM (rupture) may result following acoustic trauma (leading to permanent sensorineural hearing loss) or cochlear implant insertion (leading to decreased performance in cases of combined electrical-acoustic stimulation strategies).…”

Due to the inaccessibility of the inner ear, direct in vivo information on cochlear mechanics is difficult to obtain. Mathematical modelling is a promising way to provide insight into the physiology and pathology of the cochlea. Finite element method (FEM) is one of the most popular discrete mathematical modelling techniques, mainly used in engineering that has been increasingly used to model the cochlea and its elements. The aim of this overview is to provide a brief introduction to the use of FEM in modelling and predicting the behavior of the cochlea in normal and pathological conditions. It will focus on methodological issues, modelling assumptions, simulation of clinical scenarios, and pathologies.
