Physiological models of cochlea activity - alternatives to the travelling wave

[Matt Flax <flatmax@xxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

Does anyone out there have any active Cochlea physiological models which 
aren't based on travelling wave dynamics ?

Specificly after physiological models - of activity.

Some examples are :
a] Andrew Bells' Organ of Corti squirting wave model [1].
b] I believe that most Hopf bifurcation models still use the travelling 
   wave [2] - they also have very loose alignment with physiology.

other wave models ???
other models ???

thanks
Matt
