چکیده

This paper presents a measurement system for non-contact measurements of vibration parameters of the structural elements of the organ of hearing. It proposes an original methodology of in-vitro measurements of the human ear, round window membrane motions. It was found that the Scanning Laser Doppler Vibrometry (LDV) technique is a useful research tool in microand nanometer scales, not only for technical, but also for biological objects.

Improvement of position measurement for 6R robot using magnetic encoder AS5045

Recording the variation of joint angles as a feedback to the control unit is frequent in articulated arms. In this paper, magnetic sensor AS5045, which is a contactless encoder, is employed to measure joint angles of 6R robot and the performance of that is examined. The sensor has a low volume, two digital outputs and provides a high resolution measurement for users; furthermore its zero positi...

Anatomical and morphometrical study of middle ear ossicles in 2 to 3-month-old Makouei sheep fetuses

The middle ear ossicles are important due to transmission of sound to the inner ear leading to sound understanding. The aim of present study was to determine the anatomical and morphometrical aspects of middle ear ossicles in Makouei sheep fetuses. For this experimental study, eight sheep fetuses at the age of 2 to 3 months were provided from public slaughterhouse; their middle ear ossicles wer...

Endoscopic Middle Ear and Mastoid Surgery for Cholesteatoma

Introduction: To reduce incidence of residual cholesteatoma following ear surgery; and to reduce the need for second look “open” mastoidectomy using endoscopic mastoidotomy. Ten-year retrospective chart review of 249 primary cholesteatoma cases (1994-2004) with a minimum follow-up of two years.  The first objective was to evaluate the effectiveness of otoendoscopy in reducing the incidence of “...

Effect of Suctioning of the Middle Ear Effusion on Hearing Condition Before Ventilation Tube Insertion

Abstract OME is a Common disease in children. over than 90% of children in preschool ages experienced this disease once at least. Despite medical therapy about 10% of the OME patients won't improved and these are the group of patients who referred to as chronic OME patients. Insertion of VT in TM is an accepted therapy for these patients and during surgery for insertion of VT, suctioning of mi...

Simulations and Measurements of Human Middle Ear Vibrations Using Multi-Body Systems and Laser-Doppler Vibrometry with the Floating Mass Transducer

The transfer characteristic of the human middle ear with an applied middle ear implant (floating mass transducer) is examined computationally with a Multi-body System approach and compared with experimental results. For this purpose, the geometry of the middle ear was reconstructed from μ-computer tomography slice data and prepared for a Multi-body System simulation. The transfer function of th...
