Numerical computation of the human voice source
Final Report Abstract
The following scientific progress and impact towards the development of the hybrid aeroacoustic larynx model simVoice can be reported: (1) a CFD model with prescribed vocal fold motion was developed and successfully validated against experimental data, (2) a data transfer workaround between the CFD and the CAA part was established, (3) a CAA model was developed that is able to produce typical characteristics of experimental acoustic signals, (4) the computing time of the CFD part could be reduced, and (5) simVoice is able to mimic typical characteristics of symptoms of functional voice disorders. In the rejected renewal of the grant, we would have continued the promising, so far performed investigations: (1) numeric noise in the CFD part, (2) lack of vocal fold oscillation in the CAA part. The goal would have been to (1) further improve the established modeling and simulation processes of simVoice, and (2) implementing/mimicking the organic based voice disorder subtypes: paresis, polyps, carcinoma, and post-surgery defects as scars and synechia. Due to rejection, we cannot pursue these further steps and goals.
