Dynamic characteristics of the human vocal tract influenced by the cleft palate
Vampola, T. ; Horáček, Jaromír ; Bauma, V.
Finite element models of supraglottal tract for Czech vowels /a/ and /u/ are analyzed considering the cleft palate. Performed acoustic modal analysis is focused on investigation of the influence of the area of cleft palate on the formant frequencies F1-F3. The results for the vowel /a/ indicate, that after a small jump of the acoustic natural frequencies for a very small cleft the frequencies F1 and F2 are influence by increasing size the cleft only very slightly. The influence of the cleft on the phonation of the vowel /u/ is considerable higher.
