Using finite element method for modelling of movement and stress of vocal folds during setting to phonation position
Šíbl, Michal ; Šidlof,, Petr (referee) ; Švancara, Pavel (advisor)
This Master´s thesis deals with use of finite element method for modeling motion and stress of vocal folds during setting to phonation position. The thesis contains a description of the relevant anatomical structures and of the closely related formation of the human voice. A list of some previously published models of the function of human vocal folds follows. A part of my work was to create a model of geometry of the larynx using CATIA V5 and PTC Creo 2.0 on the basis of data acquired by MRI (magnetic resonance imaging). After that the model was converted into the calculation system Ansys Workbench 15.0 and, for solving contact problems, into Ansys Classic 15.0. To solve given problems, these programs use the finite element method (FEM). Solution was carried out for six different variants simulating individual motions of cartilages, corresponding to the activation of individual muscles. For each variant, the movements and stresses in the soft tissue of the vocal folds were evaluated. For variants with activation of IA, TA and LCA muscle it was also evaluated the contact pressure between the vocal folds. Finally, the thesis mentions the preparation of the model for the activation of the vocal folds movement by the muscles of the larynx.

Computational modelling of stress and strain of the human vocal folds during setting up to phonation position
Sádovská, Terézia ; Hájek, Petr (referee) ; Švancara, Pavel (advisor)
This master‘s thesis deals with computational modelling of human vocal folds in phonation position using finite element method. There are described larynx anatomy, voice generation theories and overview of so far published computational models of vocal folds. Next part of the paper deals with a redesign of vocal folds and soft tissues‘ geometry, creation of finite element mesh and implementation of active stress in thyroarytenoid muscle. The problem was solved using Ansys 19.2 software. Computation of stress and deformation of soft tissues in phonation position has been made for 7 variations with different combination of active cartilages and muscles. Lastly, there was evaluated an effect of different cartilages and active muscle stress to final stress and deformation of soft tissues of vocal folds.
