Source voice characteristics of the artificial vocal folds
نویسنده
چکیده
Specialised literature presents a number of models describing the function of the vocal folds. In most of those models an emphasis is placed on the effect of Bernoulli’s air underpressure during the air passage through the glottis. The author defines a principle of the vocal folds function with a working version name „principle of the compressed air bubble“. The paper deals with the experimental analysis of these artificial vocal folds and, first of all, with the properties and characteristics of the source voices generated by them. The main forces acting on the vocal folds during phonation are as follows : subglottal air pressure, elastic and inertia forces of the vocal folds structure.

External excitation of the vocal tract after laryngectomy
The vocal tract, along with the vocal folds, is the organ generating the human voice. The vocal folds alone generate what is called source voice which differs depending on whether a person wants to speak in a loud voice or in a whisper. The patients after laryngectomy are not able to use the source voice for voice generation because their vocal folds are surgically removed. Than it is necessary...
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...
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 کاملDetection of pathological diseases using a parametric model of vocal folds and neural networks
Machine Voice source: lungs, vocal folds Abstract: There are a number of clinical conditions that affect directly or indirectly the function of the vocal folds and thereby the pressure waveforms of elicited sounds. If the relationships between the clinical conditions and the voice quality are sufficiently reliable, it should be possible to detect these diseases or disorders. The focus of this p...
متن کاملMechanism of and Threshold Biomechanical Conditions for Falsetto Voice Onset
The sound source of a voice is produced by the self-excited oscillation of the vocal folds. In modal voice production, a drastic increase in transglottal pressure after vocal fold closure works as a driving force that develops self-excitation. Another type of vocal fold oscillation with less pronounced glottal closure observed in falsetto voice production has been accounted for by the mucosal w...
