Investigations of the Mechanical and Microstructural Properties of the Atrioventricular Heart Valve Leaflets and Chordae Tendineae
(2020-05)
The unidirectional blood flow through the heart is facilitated by the atrioventricular heart valves – namely the mitral valve and the tricuspid valve. The two atrioventricular heart valves (AHVs) are composed of soft tissue ...
Modeling and Measurement of Sound Transmission in the Baboon Ear
(2017-05)
While many animal models exist for middle ear research, the progression of knowledge is hindered by the impossibility of in vivo investigation in cadavers and the great physiological differences of the distantly related ...
MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF BABOON TYMPANIC MEMBRANE FROM YOUNG TO ADULT
(2017)
The tympanic membrane (TM) or eardrum of the ear transfers sound waves into mechanical vibrations in the ossicular chain and into the cochlea. The mechanical properties of the TM play an important role in the sound ...
