Study on the Prosthesis Structural Design and Vibration Characteristics Based on the Conduction Effect of Human Middle Ear

open access: yesApplied Bionics and Biomechanics, 2020
As a bridge from the sound signal in the air to the sound perception of the inner ear auditory receptor, the tympanic membrane and ossicular chain of the middle ear transform the sound signal in the outer ear through two gas-solid and solid-liquid ...

Adjustment of the Mechanical Properties of Silicone for Applications in the Middle Ear [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In case of loss of the auditory ossicular chain, the application of a middle ear prosthesis is necessary. For this prosthesis, a silicone pad shall be developed to minimize pressure peaks and for the prevention of forcing of the tympanic membrane.
