The validated finite element model of human middle ear can be used as a tool in hearing loss research.
To establish an accurate finite element model of the external ear canal and middle ear through micro-computer tomography and test its feasibility in the human.
A fresh specimen of human temporal bone was scanned by micro-computer tomography. The finite element model was established based on the images, and then the simulation results were compared with published experimental data.
After a series of simulations were conducted, the simulated results were compatible with the published experimental data and this confirms the validation of the finite element model.
