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 …

While human vocalizations generate acoustical energy at frequencies up to (and beyond) 20
kHz, the energy at frequencies above about 5 kHz has traditionally been neglected in …

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 …

For the clinical analysis of underlying mechanisms of voice disorders, we developed a
numerical aeroacoustic larynx model, called simVoice, that mimics commonly observed …

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 …

We present a recently developed approach for the modeling of fluid–solid–acoustic
interaction problems. For the efficient numerical solution of the coupled three-field problem …

Acoustic data has long been harvested in fundamental voice investigations since it is easily
obtained using a microphone. However, acoustic signals alone do not reveal much about …

For the investigation of the physical processes of human phonation, inhomogeneous
synthetic vocal folds were developed to represent the full fluid-structure-acoustic coupling …

The process of human phonation involves a complex interaction between the physical
domains of structural dynamics, fluid flow, and acoustic sound production and radiation …

The intra-glottal vortical structures developed in a static divergent glottis with continuous flow
entering the glottis are characterized. Laryngeal airflow calculations are performed using the …
