Nowadays, many different kinds of bone-conduction devices (BCDs) are available for
hearing rehabilitation. Most studies of these devices fail to compare the different types of …

Background The frequency dependent contributions of the various bone conduction
pathways are poorly understood, especially the fluid pathway. The aim of this work is to …

Soft tissue conduction has been proposed as an alternative to bone conduction (BC) for
hearing vibrations applied at soft tissue positions at the human head. Arguments for soft …

Background Bone conduction (BC) is an alternative to air conduction to stimulate the inner
ear. In general, the stimulation for BC occurs on a specific location directly on the skull bone …

Objectives Investigation of bone conduction sound propagation by osseous and non-
osseous pathways and their interactions based upon the stimulation site and coupling …

Soft tissue conduction (STC) is a recently explored mode of auditory stimulation,
complementing air (AC) and bone (BC) conduction stimulation. STC can be defined as the …

Sound and vibrations that cause the skull bone to vibrate can be heard as ordinary sounds
and this is termed hearing by bone conduction (BC). Not all mechanisms that causes a skull …

The article presents a study focusing on a bone conduction implant utilizing electromagnetic
signals transmitted through the skin. Topics discussed include the bone conduction floating …

Bone conduction (BC) sound is the perception of sound transmitted in the skull bones and
surrounding tissues. To better understand BC sound perception and the interaction with …

In order to better understand bone conduction sound propagation across the skull, three-
dimensional (3D) wave propagation on the skull surface was studied, along with its …
