Functional Analyses of Peripheral Auditory System Adaptations for Echolocation in Air vs. Water

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
The similarity of acoustic tasks performed by odontocete (toothed whale) and microchiropteran (insectivorous bat) biosonar suggests they may have common ultrasonic signal reception and processing mechanisms.

Numerical investigation of the basilar membrane vibration induced by the unsteady fluid flow in the human inner ear [PDF]

open access: yesArchive of Mechanical Engineering, 2020
For a deeper understanding of the inner ear dynamics, a Finite-Element model of the human cochlea is developed. To describe the unsteady, viscous creeping flow of the liquid, a pressure-displacement-based Finite-Element formulation is used.

The evolution of the various structures required for hearing in Latimeria and tetrapods

open access: yesIBRO Neuroscience Reports, 2023
Sarcopterygians evolved around 415 Ma and have developed a unique set of features, including the basilar papilla and the cochlear aqueduct of the inner ear.

Localization of the cochlear amplifier in living sensitive ears. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
To detect soft sounds, the mammalian cochlea increases its sensitivity by amplifying incoming sounds up to one thousand times. Although the cochlear amplifier is thought to be a local cellular process at an area basal to the response peak on the spiral ...

Consequences of Location-Dependent Organ of Corti Micro-Mechanics. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
The cochlea performs frequency analysis and amplification of sounds. The graded stiffness of the basilar membrane along the cochlear length underlies the frequency-location relationship of the mammalian cochlea. The somatic motility of outer hair cell is

Correlation and Reliability of Behavioral and Otoacoustic-Emission Estimates of Contralateral Medial Olivocochlear Reflex Strength in Humans

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2021
The roles of the medial olivocochlear reflex (MOCR) in human hearing have been widely investigated but remain controversial. We reason that this may be because the effects of MOCR activation on cochlear mechanical responses can be assessed only ...
