“…Finite element computational modeling of electrical stimulation in the cochlea has been the subject of many investigations for over 30 years (Finley et al, 1987; Finley, 1989; Finley et al, 1990). More recent models based on image reconstructions (Ceresa et al, 2014; Kalkman et al, 2015; Kang et al, 2015; Malherbe et al, 2016; Tachos et al, 2016; Teal and Ni, 2016; Wong et al, 2016; Cakir et al, 2017; Schafer et al, 2018) or simplified geometries (Briaire and Frijns, 2000, 2006; Hanekom, 2001; Rattay et al, 2001; Goldwyn et al, 2010; Saba et al, 2014; Nogueira et al, 2016) of the cochlea have been applied to predict electric potential and field distributions following electric stimulation by electrode arrays of cochlear implants.…”
