Rinne Test Results: How Badly Can We Be Mistaken?

open access: yesOTO Open, 2021
Objective To establish the extent to which sound amplitudes delivered by a vibrating tuning fork change around its long axis and to evaluate whether such differences in amplitude might change the results of the Rinne test.

Surface Chemistry at the Nanometer Scale [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
This thesis describes research towards understanding surface chemical and physical processes, as well as their effects on the underlying substrate properties, at the nanometer and atomic scales. We demonstrate a method to tune the density of etch pits on

Design and Theoretical Analysis of a Resonant Sensor for Liquid Density Measurement

open access: yesSensors, 2012
In order to increase the accuracy of on-line liquid density measurements, a sensor equipped with a tuning fork as the resonant sensitive component is designed in this paper. It is a quasi-digital sensor with simple structure and high precision.

Non-invasive assessment of vibration perception and protective sensation in people with diabetes mellitus: inter- and intra-rater reliability

open access: yesJournal of Foot and Ankle Research, 2020
Background Testing of protective sensation and vibration perception are two of the most commonly used non-invasive methods of screening for diabetes-related peripheral neuropathy (DPN).

Improving the Discriminability of Haptic Icons: The Haptic Tuning Fork

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
Technological advances enable the capture and management of complex data sets that need to be correctly understood. Visualisation techniques can help in complex data analysis and exploration, but sometimes the visual channel is not enough, or it is not ...

Rinne test: Does the tuning fork position affect the sound amplitude at the ear?

open access: yesJournal of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 2016
Background Guidelines and text-book descriptions of the Rinne test advise orienting the tuning fork tines in parallel with the longitudinal axis of the external auditory canal (EAC), presumably to maximise the amplitude of the air conducted sound signal ...

Calibration of quartz tuning fork spring constants for non-contact atomic force microscopy: direct mechanical measurements and simulations

open access: yesBeilstein Journal of Nanotechnology, 2014
Quartz tuning forks are being increasingly employed as sensors in non-contact atomic force microscopy especially in the “qPlus” design. In this study a new and easily applicable setup has been used to determine the static spring constant at several ...

A study of small sized quartz tuning fork using finite element analysis

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2017
This is a preliminary study to small sized quartz tuning fork operating at 32.768 kHz for several types of supporting structure. Tine length and tine width can be calculated by Euler-Bernoulli equation (Exact Solution), but the base shall be analyzed by ...
