This book was released on 2018-02-15 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to the Mechanics of the Inner Ear The author does not pretend to present in this book a complete, perfect, and final solution of the problem concern ing the mechanics of the inner ear. His farthest reaching hopes will be fulfilled if he succeeds in impressing upon the reader's mind the fact that there are here still problems left for solution and in giving these problems such a clear and definite formulation that the interest of others will be turned towards them. There is little hope for a final solution of these problems except by the co-operation of many investigators. The contents of this book are arranged from a peda gogical rather than from a logical point of view. The author does not intend to present a systematic representation of his own ideas for comparison with the ideas of others, but rather a series of lectures as he would deliver them before a class of college students, not presupposing any knowledge or any in terest but what a somewhat advanced college student might be expected to possess. A reader who should prefer to make himself acquainted with the contents of this. Book from an other point of View, will be able to do this by the aid of the index added. The author has attempted to omit as much as possible everything of a polemic nature. His criticism of the views of other investigators may be found in his previous publica tions. In this book he does not propose to record the views of other scientists, but the conclusions which he has reached himself after more than a decade of thought concerning these problems. For the reader who might be interested in the development of the author's thought concerning these prob lems, he has added at the end of the book a list of those pub lications of his own which are directly concerned with the problems here presented. The author hopes-that this booklet will help to break down the barrier of dogmatism which has too long stood in the way of progress in this field of scientific inquiry, and which is still far from being a thing of the past. It is truly dogmatism to profess that the application of so simple a theorem as that of Fourier can do justice to an attempt at comprehending the mechanical processes underlying the won derfully complicated and unfortunately only superficially known phenomena of audition.

Download or read book Cochlear Mechanics written by Hendrikus Duifhuis and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-01-07 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The field of cochlear mechanics has received an increasing interest over the last few decades. In the majority of these studies the researchers use linear systems analysis or linear approximations of the nonlinear (NL) systems. Even though it has been clear that the intact cochlea operates nonlinearly, lack of tools for proper nonlinear analysis, and widely available tools for linear analysis still lead to inefficient and possibly incorrect interpretation of the biophysics of the cochlea. An example is the presumption that a change in cochlear stiffness at hair cell level must account for the observed change in tuning (or frequency mapping) due to prestin application. Hypotheses like this need to be addressed in a tutorial that is lucid enough to analyze and explain basic differences. Cochlear Mechanics presents a useful and mathematically justified/justifiable approach in the main part of the text, an approach that will be elucidated with clear examples. The book will be useful to scientists in auditory neuroscience, as well as graduate students in biophysics/biomedical engineering.

Book Hearing

    Book Details:
  • Author : Stanley A. Gelfand
  • Publisher : Butterworth-Heinemann
  • Release : 2013-10-22
  • ISBN : 1483163768
  • Pages : 392 pages

Download or read book Hearing written by Stanley A. Gelfand and published by Butterworth-Heinemann. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hearing: An Introduction to Psychological and Physiological Acoustics is concerned with the physiology and psychophysics of audition. It aims to introduce the new student to the sciences of hearing and to rekindle the interests of the experienced reader. The book begins with an overview of the auditory system. This is followed by separate chapters on theories of hearing; the routes over which sound is conducted to the inner ear; the cochlear mechanism; the auditory nerve and pathways; and psychoacoustic methods. Subsequent chapters cover the theory of signal detection; how sensitivity for one sound is affected by the presence of another sound; loudness; pitch; aspects of binaural hearing; and speech perception. This book provides both an introduction and a broad overview of the field of hearing science for the advanced undergraduate student or the postgraduate student in such disciplines as audiology and psychology. It should be an extremely useful guide to these students, as well as to those researchers who wish to refresh their knowledge of the field beyond their areas of specialization.

Book excerpt: At a level for doctoral or medical students in neurosciences, audiology, or physiology, Physiology of the Ear, 2E has brought together in a complete and concise manner a compilation of articles written by experts in their specialty and addressing clinical and basic science aspects of ear physiology. The text begins with a history of the discovery of the anatomy and physiology of the ear and works systematically from the external, middle, and inner ear to the brain. Easy to read and understand, this text can be used as a resource or as a tool for study and review. It covers topics such as sound and bone conduction mechanisms, signal processing, stimulus coding in the auditory system, blood circulation of the cochlea, and auditory brain mapping. It highlights the application of new research findings to the management problems encountered in everyday practice, and covers important aspects of nonauditory physiology such as skin migration in the ear canal.

Book Hearing Loss

    Book Details:
  • Author : National Research Council
  • Publisher : National Academies Press
  • Release : 2004-12-17
  • ISBN : 0309092965
  • Pages : 321 pages

Download or read book Hearing Loss written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2004-12-17 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Millions of Americans experience some degree of hearing loss. The Social Security Administration (SSA) operates programs that provide cash disability benefits to people with permanent impairments like hearing loss, if they can show that their impairments meet stringent SSA criteria and their earnings are below an SSA threshold. The National Research Council convened an expert committee at the request of the SSA to study the issues related to disability determination for people with hearing loss. This volume is the product of that study. Hearing Loss: Determining Eligibility for Social Security Benefits reviews current knowledge about hearing loss and its measurement and treatment, and provides an evaluation of the strengths and weaknesses of the current processes and criteria. It recommends changes to strengthen the disability determination process and ensure its reliability and fairness. The book addresses criteria for selection of pure tone and speech tests, guidelines for test administration, testing of hearing in noise, special issues related to testing children, and the difficulty of predicting work capacity from clinical hearing test results. It should be useful to audiologists, otolaryngologists, disability advocates, and others who are concerned with people who have hearing loss.
