Two Mathematical Models for the Tympanic Membrane

چکیده

In this project we present two mathematical models for the human tympanic membrane. The eardrum can be viewed as an example of the vibrating drum problem. In the first model, we treat the tympanic membrane as a rectangular region. In the second model the tympanic membrane is considered as a disk. Both models use a wave equations. We study the impact of changes in the membrane tension related to trauma or tumors which cause the frequencies of vibration to either increase or decrease.

PREVALENCE OF TRAUMATIC TYMPANIC MEMBRANE PERFORATION IN PATIENTS WITH A PATULOUS EUSTACHIAN TUBE

Background: With respect to physical relations in force and pressure, we hypothesized that the prevalence of traumatic tympanic membrane perforation in patients with a patulous Eustachian tube is greater than normal, because in Eustachian tube patency, the internal air pressure of the middle ear will not increase after compression, subsequent to trauma. Therefore the force upon the tympanic...
