... at low frequencies and diplacusis (2 specific symptoms of Meniere disease). While the cochlear geometry was simplified as a tapered box shape, the middle ear was based on the real geometry obtained from μ CT images. EH is implemented by prestress on the basilar membrane surface in the simulation. Results...

...Jean W.T. Smolders; Anthony W. Gummer; Rainer Klinke The basilar membrane (BM) motion in the pigeon was measured using the Mössbauer technique. Tonotopic frequency mapping and travelling wave motion were observed over the basal 35% of the BM. The sensitivity and sharpness of the BM tuning depended...

... with the cerebrospinal fluid, cause a low-frequency pressure modulation of the perilymph, which generates a synchronous perilymphatic motion resulting from the unevenly distributed compliances in the cochlea. This slow streaming causes a displacement of the entire basilar membrane, with as a consequence a postponement...

...Hiroshi Wada; Takaya Nakajima; Kenji Ohyama Transiently evoked otoacoustic emissions (TEOAEs) are believed to be attributed to the presence of impedance discontinuities on the basilar membrane in the cochlea. However, the generation mechanism of TEOAEs has not been clarified. In this study, using...
