The simulated earing profile was used to devise an optimized blank shape with minimum earing for the designated can geometry, and a convoluted cut-edge was produced accordingly.
Periodically, though, he and his students would announce some new neuromorphic analog device: silicon cochlea or retina chips and a "see-hear" device that simulated ears and eyes.
Both 2-cc coupler and simulated real-ear measurements were performed.
In a simulated real-ear measurement component of the study, a Knowles Electronic Manikin for Acoustic Research (KEMAR; Knowles, Elk Grove, IL) was used to simulate the real-ear condition.
In the simulated real-ear feedback measurements, the hearing aids were tested on KEMAR's right pinna.
In the simulated real-ear measurement, all of the OTC hearing aids could turn to full-on gain without feedback occurring.
Both 2-cc coupler measurement and simulated real-ear measurement were conducted to examine the performance of the OTC hearing aids; (2) Estimation of the hearing loss that could be appropriately fitted with the OTC hearing aids using four prescriptive formulae.
Another idea that Professor Chafe mentioned in class on Tuesday was the "Ichabod Crane" concept where a cantaloupe or watermelon can be used to simulate the head, and binaural mics and cameras to simulate ears and eyes, respectively.
Peer inside: A digital ear-canal scan created using ERLIF technology in a simulated silicon-based ear.
Analytical theory and a crystal plasticity finite element method (CPFEM) were used to simulate the earing profiles of drawn cups of bake hardening (BH) steel.
