چکیده

Acoustic waves interact with the human body, head and ears, before reaching the tympanic membranes in the ear canals. In this project we will develop an analytical method to calculate how these acoustic interactions occur. This is a highly nontrivial problem, because the acoustic wave equation (or, for harmonic waves, the Helmholtz equation) has to be solved on the complex geometry of the boundaries. Especially the human outer ear (pinna) poses a challenge in this respect, and so far there are no good analytical methods to deal with this problem.

بررسی ارتباط بین حساسیت صوتی سیستم دهلیزی و توانایی تشدید رفلکس عضلانی برانگیخته صوتی گوش میانی در بزرگسالان دارای شنوایی طبیعی

Introduction & Objective: The vestibular system is sound sensitive and the sensitivity is related to the saccule. The vestibular afferents are projected to the middle ear muscles (such as the stapedius). The goal of this research was studying the relationship between the vestibular hearing and the sound-evoked muscle reflex of the middle ear to 500 HZ. Materials & Methods: This study was a cr...

Investigation on acoustic behavior of acoustic porous absorbers to ‎absorb sound energy and transmission loss index

In this study, the acoustic properties of porous absorbents with different porosity levels have been evaluated using different mathematical models. These models use one or more parameters of materials for calculating acoustic characteristics. In all of these models, materials are considered as equivalent fluid and reactionary characteristics have not been taken into account.
