Among the key elements for simulating middle ear physiology are the geometry and the material properties of its components, as well as the selection of appropriate boundary conditions. The middle ear is an extremely complex structure including the tympanic membrane and three ossicles, the malleus, incus and, stapes. The sound, initially funneled into the ear canal, is transferred to the middle ear through the tympanic membrane (TM) and then through the ossicular chain to the inner ear. This process is affected by several parameters such as (i) the shape and volume of the external ear canal, (ii) the shape and stiffness of the TM (iv) the pressure within and the volume of the middle ear cavity. These parameters influence the acoustic\u2013mechanical transmission through the ear, and their alteration may often result in impaired hearing.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-6507\" src=\"http:\/\/medlab.kalatzis.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/middle-ear-1-1024x399.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"399\" srcset=\"https:\/\/medlab.cc.uoi.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/middle-ear-1-1024x399.png 1024w, https:\/\/medlab.cc.uoi.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/middle-ear-1-300x117.png 300w, https:\/\/medlab.cc.uoi.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/middle-ear-1-768x299.png 768w, https:\/\/medlab.cc.uoi.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/middle-ear-1-600x234.png 600w, https:\/\/medlab.cc.uoi.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/middle-ear-1.png 1296w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"w-tabs-section\" id=\"qe0e\"><button class=\"w-tabs-section-header\" aria-controls=\"content-qe0e\" aria-expanded=\"false\"><div class=\"w-tabs-section-title\">Results of the modelling approaches<\/div><div class=\"w-tabs-section-control\"><\/div><\/button><div  class=\"w-tabs-section-content\" id=\"content-qe0e\"><div class=\"w-tabs-section-content-h i-cf\"><div class=\"g-cols wpb_row via_flex valign_top type_default stacking_default\"><div class=\"vc_col-sm-12 wpb_column vc_column_container\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><div class=\"wpb_text_column\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-6663\" src=\"http:\/\/medlab.kalatzis.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/ear4-681x1024.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"681\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/medlab.cc.uoi.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/ear4-681x1024.png 681w, https:\/\/medlab.cc.uoi.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/ear4-199x300.png 199w, https:\/\/medlab.cc.uoi.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/ear4-768x1155.png 768w, https:\/\/medlab.cc.uoi.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/ear4-600x903.png 600w, https:\/\/medlab.cc.uoi.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/ear4.png 890w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 681px) 100vw, 681px\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-6662\" src=\"http:\/\/medlab.kalatzis.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/ear2-1024x685.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"685\" srcset=\"https:\/\/medlab.cc.uoi.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/ear2-1024x685.png 1024w, https:\/\/medlab.cc.uoi.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/ear2-300x201.png 300w, https:\/\/medlab.cc.uoi.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/ear2-768x513.png 768w, https:\/\/medlab.cc.uoi.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/ear2-600x400.png 600w, https:\/\/medlab.cc.uoi.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/ear2.png 1385w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"[vc_custom_heading source=\"post_title\" font_container=\"tag:h1|font_size:66|text_align:center|color:%23000000\" google_fonts=\"font_family:Open%20Sans%3A300%2C300italic%2Cregular%2Citalic%2C600%2C600italic%2C700%2C700italic%2C800%2C800italic|font_style:600%20bold%20regular%3A600%3Anormal\" css=\"%7B%22default%22%3A%7B%22color%22%3A%22%23000000%22%2C%22font-size%22%3A%2266%22%7D%7D\"]2016-2017IntroductionResults of the modelling approachesIntroductionMiddle ear models based on the finite element method have contributed to better understand the performance and the mechanical behavior of the components of the middle ear.
