This article presents a review of the fluid dynamics, flow-structure interactions, and acoustics
associated with human phonation and speech. Our voice is produced through the process of …

As the primary means of communication, voice plays an important role in daily life. Voice
also conveys personal information such as social status, personal traits, and the emotional …

The goal of this study is to better understand the cause-effect relation between vocal fold
physiology and the resulting vibration pattern and voice acoustics. Using a three …

Many previous laboratory investigations of phonation involving physical models, excised
larynges, and in vivo canine larynges have failed to fully specify the subglottal system. Many …

A synthetic two-layer, self-oscillating, life-size vocal fold model was used to study the
influence of the vocal tract and false folds on the glottal jet. The model vibrated at …

Despite the frequent observation of a persistent opening in the posterior cartilaginous glottis
in normal and pathological phonation, its influence on the self-sustained oscillations of the …

Current theories of voice production depend critically upon knowledge of the near field flow
which emanates from the glottis. While most modern theories predict complex, three …

Three-way interactions between sound waves in the subglottal and supraglottal tracts, the
vibrations of the vocal folds, and laryngeal flow were investigated. Sound wave propagation …

In an aeroacoustic simulation of human voice production, the effect of the sub-grid scale
(SGS) model on the acoustic spectrum was investigated. In the first step, incompressible …

Although stiffness conditions in the multi-layered vocal folds are generally considered to
have a large impact on voice production, their specific role in controlling vocal fold vibration …
