One-Mass model of laryngeal airflow
Consider the 1 mass model of laryngeal airflow shown above.
The system of equations for the vocal fold vibration, airflow velocity and pressure are given by
dxdt=v,dvdt=P*L((d)(m))-02x-(b(m))v
ug=2(3(L)x2)2+Ps2-2(3(L)x2)
P=Ps-34ug22
where x and v are the vocal fold displacement and velocity, respectively, ug is the airflow velocity, P is the glottal pressure.
Parameters are given by Ps=1kPa,L=2cm,=2e-5Pasec,=1.2kgm3,f0=100Hz,0=2f0,(dm)=10, and (bm)=0.1.
a. Find the numerical solution of the system using the RK4 method. Recommended time step size dt=1e-4( sec ). Use the initial condition, x=0,v=0,ug=0,P=0.5Ps, and the contact model; (if x0 then x=0,ug=0). Plot time profiles of x and ug.
b. Find the frequency of glottal airflow fluctuation. Is the frequency same with the natural frequency of the vocal fold (f0)? If not, discuss the possible reasons.
