Construction and testing of a modern acoustic impedance tube
The acoustic impedance of a material describes its reflective and absorptive properties. Acoustic impedance may be measured in a wide variety of ways. This thesis describes the construction and testing of an acoustic impedance measurement tube which employs modem Fourier Transform techniques.

Introduction Otosclerosis is characterized by the fixation of the stapes to the oval window, thereby impairing acoustic signal absorbance. A commonly used surgical technique for improving hearing in cases of otosclerosis is stapedotomy.

Middle ear resonance in infants: Age effects
Summary Introduction: The resonant frequency is the probe frequency in which susceptance is 0 due to the neutralization of the forces of mass and stiffness components that control the middle ear.

Acoustic Experimental Technology for Aircraft Nacelle Liner
An aircraft nacelle acoustic liner is a key mean of aircraft noise reduction. The success of its design depends strongly on the development of experimental technology, which is generally divided into two stages: impedance eduction and the modal ...

Eustachian Tube Opening Measurement by Sonotubometry Using Perfect Sequences for Healthy Adults [PDF]
Objectives The aim of this study was to establish the rate variation of sonotubometric measurements using a specific broadband class of signals, the so-called perfect sequences (PSEQ) among healthy adults and to identify an optimal and technically simple

Multifrequency tympanometry in infants
Introduction: The use of conventional tympanometry is not sufficiently sensitive to detect all cases of middle ear changes, and this hinders accurate diagnosis.

Tympanometry and CT Measurement of Middle Ear Volumes in Patients with Unilateral Chronic Otitis Media [PDF]
ObjectivesThe goals of the study were to compare the middle ear (ME) volumes from both normal and lesioned ears, and these ME volumes were measured by a digital image processing computed tomography (CT) program in patients with unilateral chronic otitis ...
