The former should be doable (it’s similar to the transcranial simulations many people run for ultrasound therapies in the brain). The latter is likely to be tricky to simulate due to the large acoustic impedance mismatch. </p> http://www.k-wave.org/forum/topic/how-to-use-k-wave-to-measure-bone-conduction-acoustics-skull-transfer-function#post-8820 Sat, 10 Jun 2023 16:38:33 +0000 EVickers 8820@http://www.k-wave.org/forum/ <p>I'm a retired audio DSP engineer who's intrigued by the research on how dolphins hear using bone conduction. They get exceptional localization in the median plane, despite have no pinnae (the external ear junk we use for sensing elevation).</p> <p>I'd like to estimate the skull-related transfer function for a human skull, using a CT scan of a relatively normal skull (mine). </p> <p>What would be involved in using k-wave for this analysis? (I'm trying to decide whether to use acoustic measurements and accelerometers instead.) Is there anyone who'd be interested in consulting for this (for fun, or possibly publication)? </p>
