Modeling mechanical stresses as a factor in the etiology of benign vocal fold lesions.
Vocal fold tissue lesions such as nodules and polyps are thought to develop in response to mechanical stress that occurs during vocal fold collision. Two computational models of vocal fold collision during voice production are used to investigate this hypothesis. A one-dimensional lumped mass model, whose parameters are derived from vocal fold tissue dimensions and material properties, predicts...
متن کاملA mechanical model of vocal-fold collision with high spatial and temporal resolution.
The tissue mechanics governing vocal-fold closure and collision during phonation are modeled in order to evaluate the role of elastic forces in glottal closure and in the development of stresses that may be a risk factor for pathology development. The model is a nonlinear dynamic contact problem that incorporates a three-dimensional, linear elastic, finite-element representation of a single voc...
متن کاملDetermination of superior surface strains and stresses, and vocal fold contact pressure in a synthetic larynx model using digital image correlation.
Stresses and strains within the vocal fold tissue may play a critical role in voice fatigue, in tissue damage and resulting voice disorders, and in tissue healing. In this study, experiments were performed to determine mechanical fields on the superior surface of a self-oscillating physical model of the human vocal folds using a three-dimensional digital image correlation method. Digital images...
متن کاملVoice Recovery in a Patient with Inhaled Laryngeal Burns
Introduction: Laryngeal burns cause long-term voice disorders due to mucosal changes of the vocal folds. Inhalation injuries affect voice production and result in changes in the mucosal thickness and voice quality. Case Report: A 47-year-old woman was transferred to our department with laryngeal burns sustained during a house fire. On laryngoscopic examination, mucosal waves of both vocal fol...
متن کاملThe Effects of Size and Type of Vocal Fold Polyp on Some Acoustic Voice Parameters
Background: Vocal abuse and misuse would result in vocal fold polyp. Certain features define the extent of vocal folds polyp effects on voice acoustic parameters. The present study aimed to define the effects of polyp size on acoustic voice parameters, and compare these parameters in hemorrhagic and non-hemorrhagic polyps.Methods: In the present retrospective study, 28 individuals with hemorrha...
