Effects of the fibers distribution in the human eardrum: A biomechanical study
Gentil, F; Parente, M; Martins, P; Garbe, C; Santos, C; Areias, B; Branco, C; Paço, J; Jorge, RNThe eardrum separates the external ear from the middle ear and it is responsible to convert the acoustical energy into mechanical energy. It is divided by pars tensa and pars flaccida. The aim of this work is to analyze the susceptibility of the four quadrants of the pars tensa under negative pressure, to different lamina propria fibers distribution. The development of associated ear pathology, in particular th...
