External Ear Canal

The pressure gain distribution along the ear canal is strongly dependent on boundary conditions, and, in normal conditions, the ear canal produces a 0–20-dB pressure gain close to the tympanic membrane in the 0.1–20[Formula: see text]kHz range. Additionally, the pressure gain distribution along the ear canal at high frequencies (over the second resonance of the ear canal at 8–9[Formula: see text]kHz) depends strongly on axis position; therefore, the middle ear transfer functions based on ear canal pressure are also strongly dependent on the measuring point. Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate the mechanical influence of the tympanic cavity, ossicular chain and tympanic membrane connections on the pressure in the ear canal in the frequency range of 0.1–20[Formula: see text]kHz when a pressure source is applied to the ear canal entrance. Methods: We have developed numerical simulations for seven different models using the finite element method (FEM). Starting with an external ear canal finite element model, additional elements are coupled or removed to evaluate their contributions. We modeled and simulated the tympanic membrane, ossicular chain, tympanic cavity and a simplified cochlea in seven different combinations. Results: The pressure distribution along the external ear canal is obtained and represented in the 0.1–20[Formula: see text]kHz range for the seven model configurations.

AbstractWe argue that existing data on folk-economic beliefs (FEBs) present challenges to Boyer & Petersen's model. Specifically, the widespread individual variation in endorsement of FEBs casts doubt on the claim that humans are evolutionarily predisposed towards particular economic beliefs. Additionally, the authors' model cannot account for the systematic covariance between certain FEBs, such as those observed in distinct political ideologies.
