Human hearing system in general, and particularly the cochlea, is very interesting for investigation. The most important reason for it is hearing loss — a health problem that affects a large part of the world's human population. The highest percentage of people with hearing problems are older people, but the problem also occurs in newborns. Experimental research in this area provides some information...
Cochlea is a part of the inner ear and it has complex anatomy and function. The proper functioning of the cochlea includes the generation of a traveling wave along the basilar membrane, which leads to depolarization of hair cells in the Organ of Corti and subsequent auditory nerve excitation (mechanoelectrical transduction). To represent the behavior of the organ of Corti, electro-mechanical cochlea...
The cochlea is a very interesting part of the body. There are several investigations of experiments on the real cochlea and mathematical models. The cochlea works on the basis of a vibrating system. SIFEM project focuses on the development the multi-scale modelling of the inner-ear with regard to the sensorineural hearing loss. In this study we focused on the finite element model of the cochlea. The...
