Determination of the Parameters of Cancellous Bone Using High Frequency Acoustic Measurements Ii: Inverse Problems

چکیده

In a precursor to this article the Biot model was used to model poroelastic media. The question this article addresses is whether the sort of experiments described by McKelvie and Palmer, Williams, and Hosokawa and Otani can be used to determine the parameters of the Biot model. A method of computing acoustic pressure in the low 100 kHz range was developed in Buchanan and Gilbert, “Determination of the parameters of cancellous bone using high frequency acoustic measurements,” which appeared in Math. Comput. Modelling. In the present work a parameter recovery algorithm which uses parallel processing is developed and tested. It is found that when it is assumed that the agreement between calculated and measured data is about two digits, porosity can be determined to within about 1–2% and permeability, pore size and the bulk moduli to within about 40%, but in most cases less than 20%.

Determination of the parameters of cancellous bone using high frequency acoustic measurements

The Biot model is widely used to model poroelastic media. Several authors have tested its applicability to cancellous bone, but to do so requires a priori estimation of the parameters of the Biot model, which is an uncertain and expensive endeavor. The question this article addresses is whether the sort of experiments described by these authors in fact can be used to determine the parameters of...

Development of a Moving Finite Element-Based Inverse Heat Conduction Method for Determination of Moving Surface Temperature

A moving finite element-based inverse method for determining the temperature on a moving surface is developed. The moving mesh is generated employing the transfinite mapping technique. The proposed algorithms are used in the estimation of surface temperature on a moving boundary with high velocity in the burning process of a homogenous low thermal diffusivity solid fuel. The measurements obtain...

Determination of sediments diameter using acoustic waves

The use of acoustic waves in researches related to sea water is of most importance among scientists recently. Since these waves are the only waves, transmitted in water with lowest attenuation and high speed, they can be used in many scientific fields. The main goal of this research is to better understand the physics and mechanisms of sound-seabed interaction, including acoustic penetration, p...

The Study of Vocal Function in Patients With Early Laryngeal Carcinoma After Transoral Laser Microsurgery

Objective Today transoral laser microsurgery is considered as one of the first options to control early laryngeal cancer, and voice disorder is one of the inevitable complications of this therapeutic component. This study aimed to compare the vocal function in patients with early-stage laryngeal cancer following laser surgery with healthy individuals with normal voice quality using acoustic ana...

Assessment of Fourier Tools for Cancellous Bone Structure Analysis

The usefulness of Fourier analyses as a tool for determining key parameters of cancellous bone structure is investigated. The autocorrelation function is used to determine measures of preferred orientation of trabeculae and anisotropy. Peaks in the power spectrum are used to determine average trabecular strut spacing. Good agreement and high correlations were observed when these frequency domai...
