Acoustic speech output in humans is commonly considered to results from a combination of a source of sound energy (e.g. the larynx) modulated by a transfer (filter) funct [...]

The article reports on an analysis of conservative treatment methods of finger flexor contractures (splinting and external fixation). The treatment simulation is based on [...]

1D and 3D finite element models of supraglottal tract designed for Czech vowel / a / are analyzed. Performed modal analysis is focused on investigation of the influence o [...]

The study presents three-dimensional finite element (FE) model of flow induced oscillations of the human vocal folds in interaction with acoustic processes in the simplif [...]

Impedance and wall absorption are important characteristics of acoustical systems. Unlike the electrical case, no convenient commercial system is available for acoustical [...]

The basic element of the frequency analysis of the human hearing system is the cochlea. This article presents finite-element models of the cochlea function with parameter [...]

Dehiscence of median sternotomy wounds due to excessive forces caused by high pressure within the chest during coughing can lead to breaking closures sternotomy. This rem [...]

The Chapel of Bones, which belongs to S. Francisco Church, probably dated from the end of the sixteenth century is one of the best known monuments in Évora – Portugal. [...]

In the article a detailed comparison of techniques used to develop detailed FE models of trabecular bone microstructure is presented. The FE models are built using a stac [...]

The aim of this study was to compare the approximate finite element model of acoustic spaces corresponding to the human adult male vocal tract and nasal cavity with the i [...]

This work is founded on the co-operation of Czech Technical University in Prague, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Laboratory of Biomechanics of Man and the First Facul [...]

Two parameters of bone microarchitecture: volume of bone layer and fractal dimension were used. 42 human bone samples were cut to cylindrical testing samples of 8.5 mm th [...]

The paper deals with optimization process finding such geometrical form of acoustical cavities of the human supraglottal spaces which leads to excitation of predefined ac [...]

The model of the human vocal fold is created with transfer matrix method. The model is made from 32 cylindric or conic elements for Czech vowel /u/. The calculation is ca [...]

This paper deals with pore size distribution assessment in trabecular structure of human proximal femur. Two different approaches for estimation of histograms of pore siz [...]
