Influence of eardrum perforation position and eardrum perforation size on ear sound transfer function
Straka, Martin ; Dušek, Daniel (referee) ; Pellant, Karel (advisor)
This thesis describes influence of eardrum perforation and perforation patching (myringoplastics) on sound transfer function. Perforation size, perforation position and inluence of graft material on hearing are discussed. This thesis is completed with 3D mathematical modeling in ANSYS system. The 3D finite element model of human ear is remodeled to represent the perforated and graft covered stage. Mathematical modeling is used for sound transfer calculations and for the discussions of the influence of tympanic membrane perforation on hearing. Set of audiological examination is processed and it is made the comparison between mathematical modeling results and audiology results.

Infuence of eardrum position on sound transmission
Krbálek, Jaroslav ; Dušek, Daniel (referee) ; Pellant, Karel (advisor)
The human eardrum is inclined at an angle of 50 ° t o the axis of external auditory canal. The main objective of this thesis was to determine the impact of the inclination on sound transmission characteristics of external ear canal. It was observed influence of the various features of the eardrum and of the malleus weight on calculated transmission characteristics. Simple finite element model (FEM model) was created in the ANSYS program. The acoustic subsystem of the outer ear tube, elastic eardrum and solid malleus were created. The external ear canal model was modeled as one sided open cylinder which was terminated diagonally bedded with eardrum. In addition to the impact of the eardrum inclination, the influence of the eardrum elasticity and the weight of malleus on the sound transmission characteristics of external ear canal was also monitored. The eventual presence of the coincidence effect was also studied.
