Subject: Physiological models of cochlea activity - alternatives to the travelling wave From: Matt Flax <flatmax@xxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 27 Sep 2007 17:46:54 +1000 List-Archive:<http://lists.mcgill.ca/scripts/wa.exe?LIST=AUDITORY>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 [1] @xxxxxxxx{bell:2004, author = {Bell, A. and Fletcher, N.H.}, title = {{The cochlear amplifier as a standing wave: "Squirting" waves between rows of outer hair cells?}}, journal = {The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America}, year = {2004}, volume = {116}, pages = {1016}, publisher = {ASA} } [2] @xxxxxxxx{duke:2003, author = {Duke, T. and J{\"u}licher, F.}, title = {{Active Traveling Wave in the Cochlea}}, journal = {Physical Review Letters}, year = {2003}, volume = {90}, pages = {158101}, number = {15}, publisher = {APS} } -- http://www.flatmaxstudios.com/ http://www.flatmax.org Public Projects : http://sourceforge.net/search/?type_of_search=soft&words=mffm http://www.psysound.org
