Introduction Speech is an integral component of human communication, requiring the coordinated efforts of various organs to produce sound (Titze & Alipour, 2006). The glottis region, a key player in voice production, assumes a crucial role…
Vocal fold (VF) motion is fundamental to voice production and diagnosis in speech and health sciences. The motion is a consequence of air flow interacting with elastic vocal fold structures. Motivated by existing lumped mass models and…
During voiced speech, the human vocal folds interact with the vocal tract acoustics. The resulting glottal source-resonator coupling has been observed using mathematical and physical models as well as in in vivo phonation. We propose a…
Realistic mathematical modeling of voice production has been recently boosted by applications to different fields like bioprosthetics, quality speech synthesis and pathological diagnosis. In this work, we revisit a two-mass model of the…
Vocal fold (VF) motion is a fundamental process in voice production, and is also a challenging problem for direct numerical computation because the VF dynamics depend on nonlinear coupling of air flow with the response of elastic channels…
The two-dimensional (2D) numerical approaches for vocal tract (VT) modelling can afford a better balance between the low computational cost and accurate rendering of acoustic wave propagation. However, they require a high spatio-temporal…
This paper contributes to the understanding of vocal folds oscillation during phonation. In order to test theoretical models of phonation, a new experimental set-up using a deformable vocal folds replica is presented. The replica is shown…
The human vocal folds are known to interact with the vocal tract acoustics during voiced speech production; namely a nonlinear source-filter coupling has been observed both by using models and in \emph{in vivo} phonation. These phenomena…
The dynamics of an organ pipe's mouth region has been studied by numerical simulations. The investigations presented here were carried out by solving the compressible Navier-Stokes equations under suitable initial and boundary conditions…
In many applications, and in particular in seismology, realistic propagation media disperse and attenuate waves. This dissipative behavior can be taken into account by using a viscoacoustic propagation model, which incorporates a complex…
A sound source was proposed for acoustic measurements of physical models of the human vocal tract. The physical models are produced by Fast Prototyping, based on Magnetic Resonance Imaging during prolonged vowel production. The sound…
Sound production due to turbulence is widely shown to be an important phenomenon involved in a.o. fricatives, singing, whispering and speech pathologies. In spite of its relevance turbulent flow is not considered in classical physical…
This thesis investigates acoustic properties of the vocal tract. Starting from a historical background (to name a few: Galen, Ibn Sina/Avicenna, Mersenne, Hooke, Euler, Kempelen, Abbe Mical, Kratzenstein, Wheatstone, Helmholtz, Riesz,…
The three-dimensional reconstruction of vocal folds in medicine usually involves endoscopy and an approach to extract depth information like structured light or stereo matching of images. The resulting mesh can accurately represent the…
The numerical investigation of acoustic damping materials, such as foams, constitutes a valuable enhancement to experimental testing. Typically, such materials are modeled in a homogenized way in order to reduce the computational effort and…
We describe a one-dimensional (1D) unsteady and viscous flow model that is derived from the momentum and mass conservation equations, and to enhance this physics-based model, we use a machine learning approach to determine the unknown…
Voiced sounds involve self-sustained vocal folds oscillations due to the interaction between the airflow and the vocal folds. Common vocal folds pathologies like polyps and anatomical asymmetry degrade the mechanical vocal fold properties…
Accurate simulations of sound propagation in narrow geometries need to account for viscous and thermal losses. In this respect, effective boundary conditions that model viscothermal losses in frequency-domain acoustics have recently gained…
A theory of the propagation of acoustic waves in a porous medium filled with superfluid solution is developed. The elastic coefficients in the system of equations are expressed in terms of physically measurable quantities. The equations…
To predict liquid-gas two-phase flow phenomena, accurate tracking and prediction of the evolving liquid-gas interface is required. Volume-of-Fluid or VoF method has been used in the literature for computationally modeling of such flows. In…
