Minimal basilar membrane motion in low-frequency hearing [PDF]
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2016 Low-frequency hearing is critically important for speech and music perception, but no mechanical measurements have previously been available from inner ears with intact low-frequency parts. These regions of the cochlea may function in ways different from

Frequency‐Selective, Multi‐Channel, Self‐Powered Artificial Basilar Membrane Sensor with a Spiral Shape and 24 Critical Bands Inspired by the Human Cochlea [PDF]
Advanced ScienceA spiral‐artificial basilar membrane (S‐ABM) sensor is reported that mimics the basilar membrane (BM) of the human cochlea and can detect sound by separating it into 24 sensing channels based on the frequency band.

Responses to sound of the basilar membrane of the mammalian cochlea [PDF]
Current Opinion in Neurobiology, 1992 Recent evidence shows that the frequency-specific non-linear properties of auditory nerve and inner hair cell responses to sound, including their sharp frequency tuning, are fully established in the vibration of the basilar membrane. In turn, the sensitivity, frequency selectivity and non-linear properties of basilar membrane responses probably result ...

Organ of Corti Potentials and the Motion of the Basilar Membrane [PDF]
The Journal of Neuroscience, 2004 During sound stimulation, receptor potentials are generated within the sensory hair cells of the cochlea. Prevailing theory states that outer hair cells use the potential-sensitive motor protein prestin to convert receptor potentials into fast alterations of cellular length or stiffness that boost hearing sensitivity almost 1000-fold. However, receptor

Investigating time-efficiency of forward masking paradigms for estimating basilar membrane input-output characteristics. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 It is well known that pure-tone audiometry does not sufficiently describe individual hearing loss (HL) and that additional measures beyond pure-tone sensitivity might improve the diagnostics of hearing deficits.

Development of a Multi-Channel Piezoelectric Acoustic Sensor Based on an Artificial Basilar Membrane [PDF]
Sensors, 2013 In this research, we have developed a multi-channel piezoelectric acoustic sensor (McPAS) that mimics the function of the natural basilar membrane capable of separating incoming acoustic signals mechanically by their frequency and generating ...

Models for Approximating Basilar Membrane Displacement [PDF]
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1960 Three analytical models are developed for estimating the displacement of the basilar membrane in the human ear when the sound pressure at the eardrum is known. Frequency-domain data, derived experimentally by Bekesy, are Fourier transformed to examine the impulse response of the membrane.
